I photographed it handheld (no tripod), while moving at 10PM, using 6400 ASA, which is really pushing the envelope of my 7D camera. I suppose it's worth sharing, even though the quality is not really up to par- or maybe it is, given the circumstances... -The yellow ribbon on the tail signifies the Thanks To The Troops message on this 767-200 Apr 30, 2012
