#178 Sunset Departure

Went for a quick cycle this evening along the lower edge of the Pentlands.
A few miles out from Edinburgh this is the view to the North with the flightpath out from Edinburgh Airport.
I'm guessing that this is a night holiday flight departing, I wonder where these lucky folks are off to ?

PS PBase seems to be hanging on by a thread, hope you can see this pic! Also sorry if I havent commented on all your pics lately I am still looking but just a bit tight for time at the moment, my main priority is to keep the PaD going, comments are very much appreciated and I am enjoying your pics too, I will try to find time to comment when I can.

Canon EOS 20D ,Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM
1/500s f/5.0 at 200.0mm iso400 full exif

That's a beauiful shot John! I look at airliners thinking the same thing, btw.
cheers,

Great one John. I think something odd is happening on PBase - I have not seen your PADs on the metagallery, or perhaps I am not paying attention....

My god, you go cycling carrying _that_!? That's a workout I guess!

Worth it, it seems...that's a splendid sunset shot.

Beautiful sunset, I love the layers of the hills and the foreground too.

Back for my second try John....that's a great sunset & I like seeing the plane. Shows how vast the area is.
