Incredible photographs create illusion plane is flying to the moon

Astonishing photographs taken by a French photographer have created the illusion that a flight passengers are off to a very exotic location... the Moon.

Photographer Sebastien Lebrigand, 38, took the striking shots as he walked alone under the night sky.

Lebrigand said the airplanes looked so close to the Moon as the Airberlin and Condor planes flew from the Balearic Islands, in Spain, to Germany.

Lebrigand said, “I find it fascinating that the planes appear so close to the Moon.”

“To me, pictures are beautiful when they are unusual, and these are no different.”

He captured the images near his home in Crepy-en-Valois, near Paris in France, using a special lens designed for astrophotography.

He said, “What I've managed to capture is more or less what one would see with a telescope.”
