Driving up to Mt Teide on Tenerife, we stopped on one of the spots where one could look out over the clouds below. I noticed the plane and the two birds soaring high above and though it was a "must capture this" moment. Hope you all like it !

It is an interesting shot. At what elevation where you? Nice capture.

Hi again Mike and thank you.
Elevation was about 7200 ft.

Thanks. The only comparable view that I have seen would have been from inside an airplane. I can understand why you wanted to get this shot.

That is a pretty high mountain to be so close to the ocean--nearly straight up out of the sea, through the clouds, above the planes, and soared above by the sporting birds.
Yes, definitely a shot that must be taken!
