Inbound to O’Hare and I looked left
Somewhere out of FL240, south of Fort Wayne, IN. We were on the KNOX 4 arrival, and we were cookin’ along at about 320 knots, when center told us to slow to 250knots. – This irritates me, I just want to get there – so stop screwing around, and let me fly the speed I want to fly. This is my thought process, the stuff that goes through my head - ”Slow down….really?…what’s our sequence?……..are we following a blimp or something!? My silent sarcasm ringing in my head.
I reached up, spun the airspeed back on the FCU (Flight Control Unit) panel, the nose came up to slow the airplane down and I glanced to my left and I saw this out the window. I quickly grabbed my camera and fired off about 6 frames. I then switched to Bracketing and fired off another 6, hoping not to miss the exposure. I didn’t have time to “chimp” so I just stowed it and hoped for one decent shot.
Another lucky one!

I can’t imagine trying to take to shots and be relaxed enough to get such a quality exposure. Great read!
