Airplane picture of the day
PDX was routing arrivals in from the east all weekend, so that meant that every airplane coming into Portland from the south was routed over Oxbow Park at a fairly low altitude. It played hell with trying to take pictures of the night sky (not a terrifically successful activity with the slow lenses I have on the Pentax; a 45 second exposure is long enough so that the pesky planet rotates under me and makes every star into a somewhat wiggly streak with a bright landing-light shaped blur running a different direction across the negative) but it gave me plenty of opportunities to take airplane pictures during the day.
