Description
A large waxing moon fills most of the composition against a black background, its cratered surface rendered in pale grey and beige tones with a soft terminator shadow along the left edge. In the lower left, a small white bird with wings spread wide flies across the bottom edge of the moon's disc, its pale form and dangling legs silhouetted against the lunar surface. "Fly To The Moon Ⅱ," a 2015 photographic art montage by Kazz Morishita, composites the two elements into a single nocturnal scene of quiet, high-contrast stillness.
