Ghost Planes

Sometimes when I'm looking up photographing raptors in flight, I will see- way off in the stratosphere- a plane flying overhead. They are flying so high that the photos usually look quite ethereal and "ghostly". Hence, the name. I always imagine these planes full of tourists on their way to warm-sand beach resorts in South America.

Moths? Butterflies?

I'm honestly not sure which, but they're beautiful, anyway. (I've since been told by a lady who knows that they are the Gulf Fritillary. Thanks, Jrzy!)
