Altocumulus perlucidus with a view of the moon, as seen from the city streets, to which Jian-Syuan described as "the overall composition blends the solidity of urban architecture with the fluidity of natural elements, making the night both serene and dynamic, with a unique visual appeal." This scene was observed over Xinzhuang District, New Taipei City, Taiwan.

And this reminds me of one of the prehistoric paintings in Lascaux Cave in France….
Faintly reminds me of a Boeing C-17 Cargomaster aircraft, that is, as you look at this shot, flying away to the left hand side from one’s viewpoint, viz, a 3/4 rearward view of the craft.
