Nice timing. Very nice. And I like the simplicity of this.

just very lucky tbh - the moon was right over the runway from where we were standing but catching them at that speed was a little tricky. awesome plane though

Great shot! I was there too1 Sadly didn't catch any shots with the moon but I'm pleased with my results in general. This aircraft really is beautiful, especially against the blue sky.

Again fantastic shot!

I did get a moon shot with the Belgian F-16. The viper is quite small in frame though.

Fantastic shot - so clear. From this angle it shows what a strange shape the meteor had. Really like it

thanks - yes it's a very odd shape really and you don't appreciate it until you see it like this
