    Constellation Orion with airplane "pearl of lights" going across nearby (timed photo)

    By jd1rymal  |  Posted January 15, 2009  |  Joaquin, Texas
     

    Howdy, submitted is a photo of Orion and its "neighborhood", as taken with a Nikon D80 with the shutter open at 47 seconds.

     

     

     

     

    What makes this photo unique are two powerlines for scale, and if you look carefully, you'll see a pearl of lights which are an airplane's marker light.
