An almost full moon created a distinctive view over Mdina on 27 September, appearing between the spire and dome of the Carmelite Priory and Church of the Annunciation.
Marika Caruana captured the alignment as the moon rose behind the historic church, bringing two familiar features of the Maltese landscape together in a single frame.
From the chosen viewpoint, the moon appears low behind the church architecture, adding another dimension to Mdina’s instantly recognisable skyline.
It is one of those fleeting evening views where timing and position transform a familiar Maltese landmark into something completely different.
