Noctilucent cloud at Inner Lake of Tihany
Copyright: Soponyai György

I started photographing the scene without noticing NLCs are visible there. When I realized whats going on the Northwestern horizon the camera settings were quickly modified in order to capture the best phenomena of the clouds. The Inner Lake is a small lake on Tihany Peninsula on the northern shore of lake Balaton, Hungary.

Photo details:
2015.07.10. Tihany, Hungary
Canon EOS 5D Mark II + Canon EF 50/1.4
