[Leica] IMGs x 2: The CoVid Chronicles 39

[Douglas Barry]

I tried my old Tokina 2X converter on my Sony A7II with my Pentacon 
300/5.6 as there were a couple of overflights due above my house 
yesterday. As the planes were overflying at 34,000 to 38.000 feet and it 
was hazy, it was difficult get right as the tripod wouldn't let me get 
the right angle. I had to ramp up the ISO and hand hold the camera.

This is the best of a bad lot.

It can be seen larger, and you can see that I need to clean my sensor.

This is a 1900 pixels crop of the 6000 pixels original, and can be seen 
larger which is the actual sensor view if that makes sense.

Any hints on how to take effective aeroplane shots when they're 7.2 
miles above your head will be gratefully received

p.s. I'll have to clean that sensor again!
