A Brief Look At My Flickr Photos – July 2017

Welcome to another edition of  ‘A Brief Look At My Flickr Photos’.  I will review some of the photos I uploaded to Flickr during the past month. For each photo I will share the following information:

  • Subject
  • Location
  • Date & Time
  • Equipment
  • Camera Settings
  • Comments

In a nutshell, I hope these posts will not only help you to appreciate some of my Flickr photos, but will hopefully also assist you in becoming a better photographer yourself.

Now, let’s get started by reviewing some of my Flickr photos I uploaded in July 2017, shall we?


Moon – Mechelen – 2017 07 05 – 01 – Copyright © 2017 Ivan Coninx

  • Subject: Moon
  • Location: Mechelen, Belgium
  • Date & Time: July 5th 2017 – 23:03 LT
  • Equipment: Canon EOS 7D Mk II | Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM | Lowepro Flipside 400 AW
  • Camera Settings: 400mm | 1/640s | f/8.0 | ISO400
  • Comments: This waxing gibbous moon turned out to be the perfect opportunity to shoot a moon crosser. The first twenty-odd aircraft all flew just above or just below the moon. Eventually however, this Airbus showed up at 23:03 local time, flying in an easterly direction and making a perfect crossing.
