Awesome! High cirrus clouds in the sky tonight. With the moon shining brightly we're getting a bit of #iridescence from the light diffracting off the ice in the clouds! Also known as a #LunarCorona. Really neat shot!

A breathtaking nightscape from Rhodes, Greece, features a moonlit chapel in the foreground. The sky showcases a vibrant lunar corona, star trails, and the bright streak of Venus setting. A surprising element is the visible trail of the Space Shuttle Atlantis docked with the ISS, still illuminated by sunlight at 350 km above Earth. The image is a composite of 9, 20-second exposures.
