Ever think you’re going to get a really good photo, then something ruins it?

Stuff like this happens to the majority of people in the aviation community, whether its really cloudy, the camera doesn’t focus, or like in the example above, a camera on a post gets in the way.

At least the most of us (especially me) will sometimes get lucky and the clouds move out of the way. For example, seeing 2 A340s in a day, and a B747 both at cruising altitude which allows for some amazing trail spots like this.
