This was
your sky.
Cathedral, Mountain, Moon
This image captures a rare alignment of a cathedral, a mountain, and the Moon. Such a shot requires precise planning to determine the alignment and location, but also patience for clear weather. After five attempts over six years, the photographer finally captured this scene in Piemonte, Italy, when the sky was perfect.
