I only found this site yesterday, so I didn't have a lot of time to work on this. While driving to my softball game early this morning, my son and I noticed this enormously long condensation trail (frozen water vapor from jet exhaust) which remained intact across maybe 20-30 miles of sky (nearly 80 degrees of out field of view).
Of course, in this case, the subject was still and the camera was moving > 60 mph -- shooting through my very dirty windshield didn't help either, nor did having to shoot with the camera held at arm's-length and looking another direction.
The contrail doesn't show as well against the clouds in this exposure as it did live, but bringing it out any more would require excessive sharpening (looked terrible) or some localized dodging (prohibited). My next one ought to be better!

The road doesn't lead anywhere, which may have given this picture some point of interest. At the moment, all that stands out are the marks on the window
