Nice photo of a nice sunset
In the middle of your photo, these seems to be a streak or a very bright cloud descending downwards below the cloud line.
Strange. Can you confirm thanks?

Try and get a picture of the moon right now.

It's spectacular.

Once it gets high enough for me to go outside and snap some, I will.

Graham,

There's a technical term for that. Seagull. :)

Don't think so! Must be the clouds streaking..or something..

That streak of what looks like pelican s%$t is what actually caught my eye and made me race inside and get the camera. Yes it is an unusual piece of cloud :D

The reason I asked about your bright streak cloud is because I got this photo, with strange streaks on it :shock:

The next two photos also had strange streaks in them and then the problem went away and has not resurfaced since.

Quick Nnnnnsic, the moon is just starting to rise above the clouds on the hoizon. Suggested settings for a 70-300? I realise i'll be doing some heavy cropping :)
