    Zebra sky

    I took this the other day flying over the Gulf of Mexico.

    Re: Zebra sky

    What plane are you in? and what are all the chevrons and structures in the bottom right?

    I\like the contrast between the two sets of clouds but it doesn't do much for me.

    It is an Emb-145. The chevrons are part of the windshield heat system.

    I know it's not that good but I have just started. Also, I have a good view but the windows do create an obstruction.

    Thanks for looking.

    Hey this is a nice image. I think it shows you have a decent eye for patterns. Taking photos from just any plane is tough, you need the proper setup. Just one thing that caught my eye. Are you shooting digital? It might just be spots on the window. But your sensor looks like it may need to be cleaned. Notice the tiny droplet spots mainly in the upper half of your photo.

    Keep shooting Babaji

    Yes, I was shooting in digital, I was using a 5 MP camera. Also the windshield was not the cleanest and it is also over an inch thick and polarized.

    Thanks for the comments.
