In this picture it is showing the moon rise over a volcanoe. this picture was taken in hawaii. Hawaii has some of the best observatories in the world. The moon just past the full phase giving it its look. The moon is rising in a triangular shadow cone of the volcano, a corridor of darkness. The light is refracted through earths atmosphere making the moon appear oval shape. Also you can see the cinder cones from the eruptions of the volcanoes on the foreground .
