Contrail spotting December 2012

[sn26567]

A new month is starting. A new opportunity to share your best pictures of contrails.

It's OK with I will attach a video? Here, for example
JY-AYU Royal Jordanian Airbus A320-232 2-12-2012

No problem! Contrail spotting can be enjoyed without pictures, or with photographs and videos alike.

Hello,

having very much fun taking pictures of high flying aircraft, but still not prepared to buy a decent telescope instead I went for a new camera a couple of weeks ago . Since it arrived the weather was often so bad, I rarely had a chance to catch aircraft. When I finally succeded I had to realize that the new cam needed much more attention and I am really struggeling to get the results I expect. A day with clear sky would be very welcome, to figure out how to adjust the settings properly .
Just two shots from early December.


Regards

Kopinet

Hi all,

Yes its raining a lot atm, and the best use I can find for my telescope is to re-collimate it

My only contribution to this thread, and don't try to magnify the picture: it's taken with a "normal" camera without a telescope:

Lufthansa A340 flying west somewhere between Frankfurt and Cologne (picture taken from an Air Malta A320 at FL320)

Good afternoon and Merry Christmas to everybody,

I'm new in contrail spotting but I'm following your forum since one year.
For time being I'm using a Canon SX30 without any additionnal scope ... soon I hope.
Picture bellow has been taken during a flight between Montpellier and Paris (Air France A320).
