Moonlit seascape

Taken through the window of an airplane.

This is a rare scene that one cannot easily have seen before. One has to be in the right place, in the right condition and at the right time, so to speak.
In this case, one has to be high up like in an airplane at a cloudless night when the sea is calm and the moon is full.

I am glad that I can share with you this momentous wonder of nature.

Canon EOS 5D ,Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM
