Earth's Shadow
Twilight shot taken from the summit of mount Thabor (3.178 m), Vallée Étroite, Hautes-Alpes, France.
Being the weather conditions very clear above the sea of clouds, it's easily recognizable the typical greyish-blue band on the horizon, which is the shadow cast by planet Earth itself on its atmosphere.
A commun atmospheric phenomenon that can be seen twice a day, also from the plain, usually during the twilight hours, near sunset and sunrise (as in this case).
