This plane was destroyed in the crash several weeks before I have made those photos. Two people killed in the crash. The pilot and someone other being on a plane. It did crash directly into persons house, destroying part of it's roof. So those are requiem photos of that plane. Read more for full image quality version.

This one was sitting and watching me crawling to get to proper position of capturing. Flickr version: Canon 6D, Sigma APO DG EF 70-300mm f4.0-5.6, at 300mm, ISO320, 1/400, f7.1 The barn swallow is a bird of open country which normally uses man-made structures to breed and consequently has spread with human expansion. It builds a cup  nest  from mud pellets in barns or similar structures and feeds on insects caught in flight.   This species lives in close association with humans, and its insect-eating habits mean that it is tolerated by man; this acceptance was reinforced in the past by superstitions regarding the bird and its nest. There are frequent cultural references to the barn swallow in literary and religious works due to both its living in close proximity to humans and its annual migration.

Like some kind of man made craft with intelligent pilot. Unfortunately this is the best photo I have got. It was far enough between the clouds and us. SO this way I'm certain it's a ball lightning. In general unfortunately I have not have my camera ready. I had to switch to a tele lens. It was also residing in my trunk. I had to stop a car because of it and find a proper place. While realising I see a ball lightning and getting ready to make picture of it. So my really first picture became one of two that I have succeeded to make. I was extremely excited and my hands were shaken. And it was too dark. Anyway. Th...
