Took this image of an Airbus A340 on a bright clear day with lovely dark background sky. It was at 34,000ft heading to San Jose. Equipment used Canon EOS 1100D Tamron 70-300mm at 300mm f6.3 , 400th second.
RAW file sharpened in DPP, where I also darkened the blue and increased the brightness of the whites for a more dramatic effect. Sometimes it is best to look at the bigger picture rather than over crop
