This breathtaking photo captures the mesmerizing sight of a supermoon rising above the picturesque city of Brighton in southern England. Taken on September 27,2015, this image showcases the rare celestial event where the shadow of Earth casts a reddish glow on the moon during a total lunar eclipse. As sky-watchers around the world gathered to witness this extraordinary phenomenon, Toby Melville's lens beautifully captured the juxtaposition contrast between the giant-sized supermoon and the serene British landscape below. The moon shines brightly against an open space filled with housing and an expanse of blue sky, creating a stunning visual display. The creative use of composition allows viewers to appreciate both nature's beauty and mankind's presence in this scene. With no people present in frame, our attention is drawn solely to the magnificence of this natural occurrence. The white color palette adds to its ethereal quality while a lone cloud gracefully drifts by, adding depth and atmosphere. This photograph serves as a reminder that there is immense wonder to be found in our own backyard - whether it be gazing up at the night sky or appreciating nature's splendor from within our urban environments.
