Following the full moon in the middle of the night. This shot was taken just 2 hours after the lunar eclipse was visible in Europe, but unfortunately this unique happening was invisible to us since we were flying on the other side of the planet. Here we are crossing the dateline somewhere over the Bering Strait, the Arctic ice-covered water that connects Russia with Alaska, though the clouds shield off the landscapes from our eyes.
