  • Zoom<br /> <br /> This is shot taken from the car just outside our neighborhood. During the 1 second exposure, the lens is zoomed from 24m to 70mm. The red and yellow pattern to the left is actually a traffic signal changing color. The street is wet from rain.
  • Crossing Paths<br /> <br /> These Herons or Cranes were circling our neighborhood most of the afternoon. Not sure what was going on but they looked like they were migrating. I was sure these were Great Blue Herons when I took the photo. Since then, I've gotten closer shots and they look more like Sand Hill Cranes. <br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.chromanovus.com/Pic-A-Day-2012-1/2012-365/20847249_gbdHjz#!i=1722025250&k=7q3mP4T">http://www.chromanovus.com/Pic-A-Day-2012-1/2012-365/20847249_gbdHjz#!i=1722025250&k=7q3mP4T</a><br /> <br /> With FlightAware software on my iPhone, I figure that the aircraft was Aeromexico Aerovias Flight AMX6 From Paris to Mexico City... just under a 12-hour direct flight. They say it's a 767-200 which has a wing span of 156'. The Blue Heron or Sand Hill Crane span is about 6'. Using the lens focal length (250mm), I estimate that the 767 altitude is about 45,000' and the birds are at 3,000'.
