That is a really nice shot - the moon is well in focus and quite large - an the plane is also in focus with the movement clearly conveyed. Great work!

cool shot, well done. I love everything about this the plane, the moon, and the gradient going on with the sky.

Thanks for the positive comments. Something I'd didn't really convey to well (some people I have shown were surprised to hear) is the plane is just die-cast model I had thrown up on top of the patio to line up with the moon. With a bit of wind to help with the prop.

Clever. I would never have guessed.

Now that is an interesting project. You confused us all; I think most of us thought the plane was real! Well done indeed.

Would've been more impressive if you'd done it other way around!

Congrats on a really cool shot!

I am surprised because you took it with a 300 mm lens I would have thought that plane was in the sky.
