A photographer has been praised for capturing a 'once-in-a-lifetime' snap of the Moon looking like Saturn.
Francisco Sojuel, from Guatemala, captured the stunning image on Christmas Eve two years ago.
In the picture, which was posted to his Instagram account, we see the Moon shining brightly in the night sky, with a thin dusting of cloud cutting across it.
At first, it looks just like Saturn, but according to the photographer, the illusion is actually caused by something called a cirrostratus cloud, which is made up of ice crystals.
The impressive snap was reportedly captured following a six-hour hike up the Guatemalan volcano Acatenango, two days before a solar eclipse.
Sharing it to his page, the 25-year-old said: "The night the moon dressed like Saturn.
"From afar you may wonder, 'Is that an asteroid ring around the moon?' Well, the disguise of this waning moon is actually a thin cirrostratus cloud.
"The way the cloud interacts with the moon creates a unique display of beauty that steals protagonism from the surrounding stars. Below the moon? The dimly lit silhouette of volcano Pacaya and the Guatemalan highlands can be appreciated."
Since it was posted, the photo has received dozens of comments, with people praising Francisco's skill.
