EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing optical phenomenon in the night sky. Taken on February 9,2014, over Churchill, Manitoba, Canada, it showcases an ice crystal lunar halo encircling the gibbous moon. The ethereal glow of the moon is further enhanced by an aircraft jet contrail streaking across the scene. A distant jet can be seen at the far right, heading west on its polar flight. The image exudes a sense of mystery and beauty in nature as it showcases various atmospheric elements coming together harmoniously. The ice halo forms concentric circles around the moon due to refraction and prism-like effects created by ice crystals suspended in the air. This celestial spectacle is complemented by a cloud-filled sky that adds depth and texture to the composition. The photograph's color palette highlights shades of blue and white against a dark backdrop, intensifying the luminosity of both natural and artificial light sources present in this scene. It evokes a serene ambiance while simultaneously capturing our imagination with its otherworldly qualities. Alan Dyer skillfully captured this moment using his expertise in night photography. His keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate not only Earth's natural wonders but also human-made elements that intersect with them unexpectedly – like this fleeting encounter between an aircraft contrail and a celestial phenomenon.
