Rnps - Pictures of the Year 2014 - Photographers Story
A radio-controlled flying witch makes a test flight past a moon setting into clouds along the pacific ocean in Carlsbad, California in this October 8, 2014 file photo.
The witch is actually a radio controlled airplane powered by an electric motor. The inventor Otto Dieffenbach III invited me to shoot a test flight as he was keen to fly his invention through a full moon.
I have no idea how he makes it fly but its amazing just to watch, freaky actually. Shooting was a bit of a challenge, as the moon was setting into the ocean fog and there needed to be a slight bit of dawn light for some separation in order to focus on the witch and not the moon. It was only near the end of the 15 minute battery powered flight that it all came together with the flight path, light, focus and timing. - Mike Blake REUTERS/Mike Blake (UNITED STATES - Tags: SOCIETY ENVIRONMENT TPX IMAGES OF THE DAY)

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, taken on October 8,2014, a radio-controlled flying witch glides through the sky past a setting moon and into the clouds over the Pacific Ocean in Carlsbad, California. The image showcases an incredible invention by Otto Dieffenbach III, who transformed a radio-controlled airplane into an enchanting witch figure powered by an electric motor. The photographer, Mike Blake, was invited to capture this test flight as Dieffenbach was eager to see his creation soar against the backdrop of a full moon. Witnessing this spectacle was nothing short of amazing for Blake; he describes it as both fascinating and eerie. However, capturing such a moment proved challenging. With the moon descending into ocean fog and only faint dawn light available for separation between the witch and its celestial companion, achieving focus became crucial. It wasn't until near the end of its battery-powered flight that everything aligned perfectly – flight path, lighting conditions, focus accuracy – resulting in this remarkable photograph. This image is part of Reuters' "Pictures of the Year 2014 - The Photographers Story" package. It exemplifies creativity meeting technical expertise while showcasing society's fascination with unique inventions like Dieffenbach's flying witch.
