As per Jomak1's suggestion, here is the photo converted to B&W in PS6. IMHO, I miss the strength of the sky in the B&W version but like the drama that the B&W adds to the contrails. I had to tone down the reds to give the planes more contrast against the sky. If anyone wants to have a go at the B&W version, feel free.

Wow! Very impressive. Both versions have their strengths but think my vote would go with the b and w. what do others think?

The other photographers must have paid a lot of money to tie with you!

Wow, great shot. You should be extremely proud of yourself, I know that I am proud for you. Made my day! I normally like some B&W's, but in this case, the color one is like God made it for you, now do like Him and rest on the seventh day, perfect job.

Don't think so. The 4 to the right appear to be correct to me, with the one to the left just a tad in advance of the rest of the team. That are my ruler's bent.
P.S Magic shot.

Well it's not Canadian Geographic and it was tied for first with 4 other submissions but this area has a number of very good photographers whose work is regularly published in the local paper. So just being in their company is quite an honor for me. C&C welcome.
Beautiful shot!

I love your composition as the vapor trails take one through the space and create great visual elements.
