Bright Sky

I have a fascination with flying vehicles and I find them very interesting during periods where the sky is lit by low-angle sunlight. When I was a teenager, I used to be up early in the morning delivering newspapers. Most mornings I would usually stop to watch an early jetliner coasting through the blue morning with yellow-orange sun glinting off its metallic surfaces.

The other day, I watched a military transport arc across the late afternoon sky in front of a threatening cloud formation. I was reminded of my younger days and felt compelled to create the above image.
