Sky Watch #37
It's skywatch time of the week again. I'll put Valley of Fire series on hold for a couple of days to give way to sky watch today and photo hunt tomorrow.
This series of photos were shot between 5:45 pm to 6:00 pm on February 5, 2009 from my work parking lot. I normally don't do some shooting when I'm around work but I already clocked out and was about to drive out when I spotted this interesting sky.
Great captures. I love to shoot planes in the air! Awesome!
ReplyDeleteHey, I was first!... and second now. lol
ReplyDeleteThese are so dynamic and dramatic. Lots going on in the sky and the plane is a cool bonus.
ReplyDeletethat was a stormy sky, great shots,

Your skies look like ours full of threats. Lovely capture.
ReplyDeleteIt didn't mind the grays! Hope no storm got it...
ReplyDeleteIn that first photo, we can see lights on the plane's wings. Nice shots.
ReplyDeleteIts nice following those planes with such a sky. Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteI need to get some airplane shots. that's one thing I'm woefully short on in my archives.
ReplyDeleteSuch drama the plane is flying through!
ReplyDeleteI love aviation photography, these pics are great.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!

I'm with Guy, love aviation shots and, forgive me, but I'm happy to see someone else is having gray skies! Yours are fascinating though with the different shades. Hope you have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteLove the dramatic sky! Shooting airplanes is not the easiest thing to do - I have tried several times. I prefer your shots!
ReplyDeleteThe second one is the best one for me, it gives an interesting division in the sky, the barrier of clouds seems to mark two spaces, the plane adds depth and movement, yes : eye candy, well done !
ReplyDeleteWow, wow...I've been wanting to take a shot of planes too like Mojo. And this one is spectacular. And the sky? one great show again.
ReplyDeleteI really like the way the plane gets smaller and smaller flying through those dark clouds.
ReplyDeletewhat an amazing capture,great timing!
ReplyDeleteSkywatch Friday

Great series!
ReplyDeleteSometimes several things come together at exactly the right moment, you were so lucky to sgrab the moment. Thanks for sharing!
Have a good weekend.
Looks like the clouds are going to burst to rain. I live close to Burbank Airport here in So. Cal and I see a lot of them hovering the skies. Nice series of pictures.
ReplyDeleteThose skies are so moody for that poot little plain to be in.
ReplyDeleteYAAAAY. I'm finally able to comment, Maria. I had tried the last two times I came but couldn't. You know me...I LOVE skies like this, so BRAVO.
ReplyDeleteThreatening sky. Very well done.
ReplyDeleteInteresting clouds, and I love the airplane series, too.
ReplyDeleteDramatic scenery...especially the dark clouds...perfect capture of this plane!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos for SWF. Love the way you capture the plane from close to faraway. The sky looked like a storm is coming. Have a nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteDid a storm come out of those ominous looking clouds? Cool shots!
ReplyDeleteYou have gray skies and colorful rocks out your way! Very interesting posts on the Valley of Fire.
ReplyDeleteinteresting shades of gray. hopefully there wasn't any heavy downpour. the vanishing aeroplane added interest in the sky photos! :D
ReplyDeleteVery nice gloomy sky with the plane as a highlight.
ReplyDeleteGreat collection :) Well done :)
ReplyDeleteHave a lovley weekend :)
PC: Neat shots of the plane as it goes into the clouds.
ReplyDeleteIt seemed as if the plane was aiming for that hole in the clouds and in the last one it had gone through. Good aim. From you too.
ReplyDeleteVery interesting and atmospheric shots. And a plane. What a deal.
ReplyDeleteI love shooting planes. I have dozens of pictures!
ReplyDeleteThis photo reminds me of what I love to do whenever I'm near an airport: Plane spotting. Thanks for sharing these great images!
ReplyDeleteLooks like rain!
ReplyDeleteNice cloud formations and love the light in the last photo
