Today was my rescheduled flying lesson. It was brilliant. Pilot took off, climbed to 2500', gave me control, I flew round for 30 minutes then handed back to the pilot for landing. It was very blustery and rough and I loved it. Mrs T, sitting in the back was less enthusiastic. It took the best part of the hours drive home for her stomach to land, and to start getting more than monosyllables out of her!
I didn't take a camera (just as well really), as I didn't want her to miss out on the flight by trying to take photographs. I did take one of G-ISLY, a Cessna 172, which was my steed for the flight, using my Nokia phone.
And here it is. Taken at Scone (Perth Airport), today.
Nokia N8-00, 1/1700 sec, f2.8, ISO 400, Processed in Lightroom and Nik Software.
I had no other viewpoint of the plane as I had to take this from a corner, behind a barrier, prior to meeting my instructor, Sean.

Ask yourself, "What's most important for the final image?".
