I missed the full moon Sunday due to overcast, but went out last night to take pictures. There was lightning very close to the moon, but unfortunately it had moved before I got set up, and I ended up just getting some wider angle shots with lighting and the moon (using my K-3).
I then started taking pictures of the moon with my DA* 300 + Q10. I realized there was a flight path right in front, and i was thinking it would be really cool to get a picture of a plane in front of the moon. I then saw a plane that seemed to have the perfect trajectory. I verified everything and low and behold - the plane flew right in front of the moon. And OF COURSE my IR remote wouldn't trigger the Q10, and I missed it by half a second
Oh - what could have been
Of course even if the camera had responded, chance of the plane being right where it needed would be pretty small. ALso I am not sure the 1/200 sec shutter speed would have been fast enough to freeze the plane. I switched to my K-3, and set to hight speed, but every plane after that was way wide.
