I was sitting at home last night when a friend called to tell me that there is a big bright moon out, and that I should go and take a photo of it with a long lens.

I got my Nikon P1000, put it on a tripod, and went out in the front garden of our house.

The moon was quite low, so I had to find a gap between the trees.

As I set the camera and tried getting the moon into focus, I saw this plane passing across.

So with the tripod partially on the ground and partially bent sideways, I took these quick shots.

I wonder what are the chances of this happening??

Terrific shots

THAT....is pretty cool.

Outstanding!

.

wow

Unbelievable

You should send yours in mate.

Nice!

You're spoiling us. Great photography is becoming your trademark.

Very cool!

A video of the same moon rising

Funny part is we look at the moon, and it looks stationary.

But, looking at it through a high magnification lens, it is moving quite fast.

Stunning, but where is the plane when looking at the video?

Prettt damn cool.

I knew you had a lot of pull with Emirates, but I never heard of your flights to the moon.

It was on the other side of the moon during the video phase!

What would we do without you and your shrewd wit

Really neat and unique photos!

Amazing!

Brilliant pics!

I did not realize that commercial airlines were making flights to the moon just yet.

Thanks for sharing.

Absolutely fantastic!

Best regards, D. Nelson

Great shots!

Superb photography, Saeed. Believe I read that the moon was at its annual closest to earth a few days ago, the "Super Snow Moon" the biggest full moon of 2019.

Awesome shot an awesome plane 747 I believe

WOW! Saeed, you bring us good stuff. Thanks for posting this photo.

Very cool.

Saeed,

I'm guessing those shots are likely to be unique and therefore worthwhile applying copyrights.

Excellent photography

Just beautiful!

That is my guess, as you can seem to make out the jump. Definitely four engines, so it could also be an A380, but 747 is that is in fact the hump.

Incredible photos and luck!

Keep tinkering with those plane pictures
and you'll no doubt see the sign: Emirates
on it!

One time I set the camera lense open for a few hours just to get the arc. Pretty slick.
Only problem was someone came in the room and
bounced the floor so there was some "giggles"
in the middle of it.

Don't think I've seen better pictures of the
moon before.

Thanks for sharing,

George

Finally, proof that people live on the moon and fly planes!!

Brilliant.

Way cool!

Man, the only camera I use these days is on my Iphone. Don't think I could have pulled that off. Great pictures.

That is another fantastic photo. There are several talented photographers on this site.

So glad you had the equipment to capture, Saeed. Those images are just bloody beautiful.

Splendid pictures Saeed...thank you for sharing.
