Bow and Arrow - a Plane Crossing the Crescent Moon:
On 11 November 2023, at 7:21 am from Bolton, UK; I had the captivating opportunity to photograph a plane gracefully traversing the crescent moon, forming a distinct archer shape that conveyed the evocative image of an arrow being released from a bow.
As the morning sun ascends, casting its rays upon the contrail, conventionally white, a captivating metamorphosis unfolds. The vast expanse of air selectively scatters away blue light, casting the reflected trail in a brilliant hue of orange.
