Explanation:
This serene sand and skyscape finds the
Dune
of Pilat
on the coast
of France still in Earth's shadow during the early morning hours of May 16.
Extending into space, the
planet's dark umbral shadow covered the Moon
on that date.
From that location the
total
phase of a lunar eclipse
had begun before moonset.
Still in sunlight though, the
International
Space Station
crossed from the western horizon
and
Earth's largest artificial moon traced the bright flat arc
through the sky over 400 km above.
Simply constructed, the well-planned panoramic scene was captured
over a 5 minutes in a series of consecutive images.
