乘坐飛機可以選坐「窗口位」或「走廊位」，但喜愛星攝的影友看過攝影師 Eric Wagner 的作品後，下次乘飛機時也可能會像 Eric 一樣，選擇「能看到銀河」的坐位。

Mid-Air Milky Way Magic Whenever I'm flying I do my best to get a seat facing the Milky Way. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. I recently flew and the entire time we chased sunset and it was never dark enough to capture the Milky Way. Last night however, I was flying from Singapore to Australia. I set up my tripod and started shooting. It is the first time I was able to capture a shot of the Milky Way from a plane in the Southern Hemisphere. I had already gotten some decent shots to work with so I started shooting a series of 10 second exposures to work into a stacked photo. I was treated to a magnificent sight though as I shot. I'll let the photo speak for itself. The stars could have been a little sharper as there was slightly bouncing during the shot but overall I just love the shot.

話說去年 9 月，Eric Wagner 乘坐飛機從新加坡前往澳洲。他一如以往，事先查正資料，確保能坐到朝向銀河一邊的位置。由於已累積了一些經驗，所以他這次選用 10 秒曝光，並用上三腳架，連續拍了好些相片，以便在後製時可以藉著疊加相片，提高影片品質。

結果在今次的旅程上，他除了拍到銀河，還很幸運地在其中一張相片上拍到流星。這顆流星很光亮，不單在機翼上造成倒影，還在窗戶上留下重影（平行而較短的幼線）。有網民更留言稱，在銀河下方、翼尖附近很明亮的白色光點（綠點據估計是飛機的信號燈）是木星。

▲Eric Wagner 這張作品曾被美國太空總處（NASA）選為「每日一圖」。

Eric 表示，雖然他在飛機上已拍到過不少精彩照片，但這次是他第一次從南半球的飛機上拍到銀河照片。即使仔細看，影像還是有一點震動，但整體來說這次仍然是個難忘的經驗。此外，他又提到，大概有 1% 的網民還是堅決認為這張照片是 Photoshop 偽冒作品，因此他提供了當時的機背螢幕相片，以及一些拍攝「設定」以作證明，包括：Canon EOS 5D Mark IV 相機、Sigma 14mm f1.8 鏡頭、ISO 6400 感光度、10 秒曝光時間，而當中的重點相信是：他乘搭的是 Airbus A380 客機，並乘坐在商務客位。

It’s basically 3 months to the day since I took this shot. 99% of people are complementary and love it. Then we have the 1% (or probably less) who think it’s faked or photoshopped or don’t understand how I could shoot 10 seconds without getting trailing stars from a plane. So here is the shot of the back of the camera. Yes it’s a single image Yes it’s not photoshopped Yes it’s really 10 seconds Yes It was on a tripod as I was in business class of an a380 Yes a380s have 2 windows so the frame in the shot is the outer window Yes you can shoot 10 second shots from a plane. The forward movement doesn’t impact star trails but turbulence and up and down movement does (I’ve had much better luck at 10 seconds with a 14mm than a 24mm) Yes it is a meteor not a satellite. NASA confirmed it was a bolide meteor.
