Skywatch Friday - Jetstream

Most of this cloud formation is jetstream. A plane lands at Heathrow approximately every minute.

See what other skywatchers have posted this week.

Love this photograph! Planes land often at Pearson (Toronto) but I've never seen a photo op like this one!

I used to live below the Heathrow flight path so those skies are very familiar!

You've captured it really well.

I didn't know that there're flying artists creating daily piece of arts like this. Interesting SWF! Great discovery!

That is so spooky. This is a an excellent capture. o observant of you to notice this.

Great capture of the plane jetstream!

Such a good image, Mo. Not only have you noticed how intricate the clouds and the trails intersect, but your horizon is inspired. The chimney pots - and their utter blackness - are a marvellous support to the blueness of your sky. Then to have the rays of the rising sun just visible behind the pots and at the end of the trail is careful composure.

I like the simplicity of your new layout ...

Very cool! I never think to photograph the sky when the jets fly over here. Thanks for the idea.

I agree, the composition alone is outstanding in this SWF photo. Brava!! The clouds are great. Thanks for visiting my Skywatch post. I look forward to seeing more of London here. Have a great trip! Bonnie

The color, the foreground, the light... All make a wonderful capture.

What a great picture for SkyWatch! Love the chimney stacks, too. I know this is going to sound corny and cliche, but they remind me of Mary Poppins!

This is my favorite for this round. Hands down. Perfect.

I love the sky colours, and the placement of the cloud is just perfect over all of those chimneys. Makes me think of the first Disney movie I ever saw: Mary Poppins. Love it!
