The moon was very visible early in the evening a few days ago, so I decided to snap a few photos. I took two shots and still had the camera up to my face when I noticed the jet enter the viewfinder and I took this photo. This is one of those situations where skill had absolutely nothing to do with the outcome. I was simply lucky, fortunate, or whatever word you want to use. Had I been just a few seconds later, I would have missed it completely.

That is a splendid picture - sometimes things just work, which makes up for the more frequent times when they don’t!!

Great photo, I can feel the calmness in the shot.
a great shot Brian! I was looking out tonight at the moon to see what was happening. Believe a full moon tomorrow night, but doubt there'll be much happening at the weather is cloudy and wet and more to come. Will try to remember to try for it though and see what results.
This is a great capture!
What a great shot! I love it when things line up like that...and the camera is at the ready!
It sounds like you were in the right place at the right time! Very cool
Isn't it fun when you get something unexpected in your shot. Great one!
nice catch! the moon's no slouch in this photo, either!
Wonderful capture!
Great shot! wow!
Wonderful photo!
Sometimes those photos of luck are the best of all!
A fantastic image Brian..
Fantabulous! =)
Great shot Brian! I got some fun shots last evening with lots of action in the sky. I will be posting them later this week or next.
Wonderful shot!
Wow, Brian, that's an outstanding shot! Love it! Thank you for sharing on Weekly Top Shot #33!
Fortune favors the prepared---
GOOD CATCH!
Lucky or not this shot is fabulous. I'm thinking you should title this, "Fly Me to the Moon."
Whoa! Perfect timing. I love when that happens. Beautiful image!!
WoW-zers, the jets good but how about that moon, it gorgeous!!
Wow, very impressive shot! Capturing the jet with moon is outstanding!
'Fly Me To The Moon' is playing in my head. :)
A wonderful shot Brian!
So cool to have the moon and plane in the same photo (without using any photoshop trickery!).
Well, that's just too cool! Beautiful!
What an incredible capture!
Awesome capture, Brian. We are but a speck of dust in a vast universe.
Fly me to the moon...la la la. Or perhaps that is the return flight taking off. Great shot!
Moon shots are hard for me. I am hoping to get a few decent ones while we are camping. That is such a lovely picture.
WOW! What a brilliant shot! It's a great feeling when you are in the right pace at the right time.
Which lens did you use for this one?
That is awesome Brian! Your moon is so lovely, and then to have that added element. Too cool!
All I can say about your shot is, wow. I'm in awe. I've gotten some good moon shots over the past few years, but nothing like this. Fabulous. Love the plane in there too, a happy accident. :-)
