[edit] Summary
Space Shuttle Atlantis launches at sunset. The sun is behind the camera, and the shadow of the plume is cast across the vault of the sky, intersecting the rising full moon. The top portion of the plume is bright because it is illuminated directly by the sun; the lower portions are in the Earth's shadow.
Original image was from NASA, and was cropped and retouched by Balster. Noise reduction performed by Diliff.
