The streak of a takeoff

2-minute exposure with Canon SX50 shows streaks from airplane and stars
The blinking lights leave dotty marks

In testing long exposures with my SX50 HS, the camera caught something I didn't expect - an airplane taking off to the skies. The wings have blinking lights attached, and the streak left by the airplane ended up having periodic dots next to it. That's something you can't expect in the streaking stars. Speaking of stars, the brightest streak belongs to Jupiter.

Waxing moon

Waxing Moon taken with Canon SX50 HS
Both the Moon and Venus shared the crescent shape (38% size)

The Moon was photographed right after Venus last Saturday due to its proximity to the planet. It's been more than three months since I took picture of it, so it was an interesting refresher.

The shadows make the craters look more pronounced, which produces a lot more interesting photo than a Full Moon. The little craters inside the "seas" were pretty cool to notice, too. It was the first time I used the Moon & Skyglow filter on the Moon, and I guess that helped, too.

Settings: Canon SX50 HS - 1200mm - ISO 80 - 1/60s - f/6.5
Filters: Baader M&S applied
