A runner makes his way along a trail on a butte in front of the super Moon at Papago
A runner makes his way along a trail on a butte in front of the " super Moon" at Papago Park in Phoenix, Arizona May 5, 2012. A " super Moon" will light up Saturdays night sky in a once-a-year cosmic show, overshadowing a meteor shower from remnants of Halleys Comet, the U.S. space agency NASA said. The Moon will seem especially big and bright since it will reach its closest spot to Earth at the same time it is in its full phase, NASA said.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this breathtaking print captured by Darryl Webb, a lone runner gracefully navigates his way along a trail on a butte at Papago Park in Phoenix, Arizona. The mesmerizing backdrop of the "super Moon" adds an ethereal touch to the scene. As NASA explains, this rare celestial event occurs when the Moon reaches its closest proximity to Earth while being in its full phase. Consequently, the Moon appears larger and brighter than usual. The low angle view emphasizes the vastness of both nature and space, with the silhouette of the runner serving as a reminder of our smallness in comparison. The tranquil atmosphere created by the serene landscape and darkness is further enhanced by the solitude of one person enjoying their evening jog. The composition showcases creative use of light and shadow, with contours beautifully highlighted against a picturesque sky. The yellow hues add warmth to an otherwise cool-toned image, evoking feelings of relaxation and peace. This photograph captures not only physical activity but also invites contemplation about our place within nature's grandeur. It serves as a reminder that even amidst our busy lives, taking moments to connect with ourselves and appreciate the beauty around us can bring tranquility and joy.
