Description

During the past winter in windy days the sky in Alicante was particularly clean and it was perfect to combine images of the moon taken early at night with astrophotography of M31 acquired late when the sky was darker and the lights of the city were dimmed.

The image is a composition of two different images conceived to illustrate the relative sizes of sky objects.
