Sky Watch Friday ~4~3~'09 Contrails


Sky Watch Friday





*Go here* for other sky pictures around the world!

~~~

Late yesterday afternoon my husband called me outside-and told me to bring my camera- to see these 'plane tracks' in the sky! He knows how fascinated I have always been with seeing these trails in the sky. I have seldom seen them colored just the way these were, though. This was due to the time of day it was-just as the sun was about to set!








:) I know 'plane tracks' is not the correct term - but I like it!

contrail |ˈkänˌtrāl|

a trail of condensed water from an aircraft or rocket at high altitude, seen as a white streak against the sky.

  5. Hello dear Junie:-)

    I'm rocking away in my chair to the Dire Straits! hehe Such wonderful pictures you took of the jet trails (that's what I call them! lol)...always fun to see the traffic that goes on in the sky.

    I was so glad to hear that the teapot reached you safely!! I was so worried it would break but hoped I had packed it well enough. Enjoy:-) xoxo
