while I drove my car ( at 100 km/hour ;) I saw this shade coming from a
contrail but that lasted about 10 second and after that disappeared ! I saw
2 of these shadows that day ... I missed the first one but I prepared my
camera and few minutes later I had another chance ;) photo details : Coolpix

What a lucky show I had here in Quebec city !!! It was solid overcast here
but at 10pm ( local time ) we had a break in the clouds during 2 hours then
I had the time to "burn" 3 rolls of 24 exposures and millions of pixels
during these 2 hours ;) Here's 2 digital pictures ... more film pictures
will follow soon. Coolpix 4300 , 8 sec , iso 400 © Dominic Cantin
