Moments, everybody has extraordinary moments in their lives. Some can explain them as supernatural, luck, fate or to be in the right place at the right time. Whichever you prefer, those moments are rare. That's why they are so important. The story of this photo is about one of those moments. So let me tell my story; It was the day before the blood moon. I geared up my equipment and went out to take some test shots. At the end of my practice, my mind came up with an idea. What if there was a plane, exactly between me and this silver-colored moon.
I thought to myself, what an epic capture would that be. Anyway, it was late, I packed my stuff and ended the night. That was the time when I heard a sound, the sound was slowly approaching. First, it was like a heavy vehicle resembling a truck, then sound turned into another form. Yes! It was a plane. I smiled when I was in shock. Could it be happening? Took my camera and ran to the balcony of my home. Unbelievably, a plane was flying towards the moon. I thought I did not have enough time. I looked at the moon then the plane several times. It seemed they were going to intersect as I wished just moments ago. Turned on my camera, switched to the continuous drive mode. The plane was extremely close to the exact point. I zoomed and focused to the moon and held my breath. The countdown started in my head. 5... 4... Checked my settings one last time while my one eye in the viewfinder and the other one in the outside. 3... 2... Exhaled a half breath. 1... That was it. Pressed the shutter..... . . . By the way, I go with "in the right place at the right time". What do you think?
