It is the contrail of a airliner at altitude moving <>Btoward the camera, at an angle of about 30 degrees off center to the right. Retired TRANSPAC airline pilots and USAF types said it was a rather common sight to see as they are climbing out over water on a westerly heading at sunset. It's heading towards the camera, but at the same time heading west? Wouldn't the photographer have to be out at sea then?

Wouldn't the photographer have to be out at sea then? While that's possible I don't know if it's the only option. I'm just guessing here, but the photographer could be in a large bay looking east.
