Terminator
The terminator is the line on a planetary body separating night and day. I've been trying for a shot of it for quite a while, and this is the first one I'm happy with. Taken at 35000 feet over the Indian Ocean, just before local dawn. The terminator passes over every point on the planet outside the Arctic and Antarctic Circles twice a day, yet can hardly ever be seen from ground level due to shadows, lights etc.
