Was out tonight trying a new addition to the 300 f4 - a 1.4x extender. Shot this one after the sun had dropped below the horizon, would love some feedback.

Me, too, but I wonder what caused that light effect at the wingtips & tail?

Thanks. Tail is actually illuminated, and as to the wingtips, the red and green wingtip lights are always present. The bright yellow light on the left wing is part of the background.

The levels were also played with a bit by my, including highlighting, which I believe may have brought out some of the residual light found in the photo.

Tail would be from the Logo lights that point upwards to illuminate the airline or tail numbers. Leading edge could be from the wing lights (if installed) to illuminate the leading edge so pilots can detect ice. Also helps to visually ID the airplanes from a distance.

Thanks Cozmo - could be, but I was on a bit of an incline when I shot it...
