The International Date Line sits on the 180º line of longitude in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, and is the imaginary line that separates two consecutive calendar days.
I took this picture while flying from Sydney to Los Angeles in my camera the date is 3 of December but as we where flying over Samoa (as close it can be) the real date was 2 December.
Tonga and Samoa have the same time but are (1) day apart, as Samoa is in the Western Hemisphere, on the opposite side of the International Dateline from Tonga.

Hello Marco

This is really a nice photo, lots of great colours that almost seems to create a palette of it's own.
The note is very informative and also makes great sense in this photo as you seem to fly from a bright place, tomorrow, and heading into the past.
The photo is slightly grainy but it doesn't matter.
Great job and Merry Christmas

Odd Jarle

Beautiful new day, Marco
Though I've usually seen many plane window shots like yours but you've made it an extra-ordinary shot.
With a dramatic colors in the sky, the 180 degree longtitude date line and your useful note made it the most interesting plane window shot I've ever viewed.
Thank you for sharing,
kenggaroo

Hi Marco
The sky is most beautiful when you watch it from the plane, especially the sunsets. And this shot confirms this.
Perfectly captured!

That's a very interesting theme for a photo. Extremely nice colours in the clouds. A useful note as well.

Hi Marco

I like the depth added by the 2 layers of clouds. Wonderful colour, lighting, pov & sharpness. The graphism added by the wing tip & 2 exhausts is excellent, with good backlighting. Tfs!

Marco, this is an amazing shot. It looks like you are flying in heaven. Nice job on this, Mike

There isn't one part of this shot that doesn't hold the eye. Captivating, primarily through the wide range of beautifully saturated pastel tones. Rises well to the top of the many plane window shots on show here. Great sense of place too.

Hi Marco,
Great story behind the shot. Photo itself is really beautiful, the composition, clouds and especially colors. And the wing is an important part of composition, it is not distracting but adds to the photo.

Regards,
Bogdan

Hi Marco,

The colors of the sky in the image are stunningly beautiful.
Nice job in capturing such a great looking image.

Hi Marco,
This type of pictures has become my favorites every time. Colors' harmony in the picture give adequate message to understand ambiance and dateline. I still wonder how did you manage to take this picture in the airplane ? Because of my question; in Türkiye , taking a picture during the flight is not allowed by flight attendants. :(

waouw très jolie photo, bravo!!
j'adore, en plus avec ce morceau d'aile, je suis un passioné d'aviation et de photographie donc je ne peux que aimer ;-)

to think that this beautiful view also has such an international meaning, makes the picture even greater !

Hello Marco,
Well done shot. Amazing and impressive colors and clouds view.
Very nice and beautiful view.
TFS,
Have a nice day.

Marco,

Absolutly amazing. Sometimes photography captures everyday life, and sometimes it captures dream worlds that can only exist in our minds... you've combined the two. This isn't just a window shot that happened to be great, this is a magnificent photo that just happened to be taken through a window, and that doesn't detract from the quality or composition at all.

Perfect!

great shot :o)
TFS it
ili :o)

Very interesting post, if you look at this photo through the eyes of an artist you can perhaps even see the so called inaginary date line. Great colors, good job overall.

Skies are weird so high. When I flew last time, Bangkok to Lax, during the day, Thai airlines shut all windows shades the entire trip, shut off the lghts, pretended it was night, and let no one open the shadeson the windows. That way they did not have to serve anyone anythig almost the entire flight! I finally had a seat without a wing, and no pictures! I will never fly Thai again!!!! this is a great picture!

So you have succeeded to take a photo of the dateline! Well done! Beautiful colours and sharp photo. (I myself, just woke up for a moment, when I passed the dateline... hope for better luck next time!)

a wonderful view, amazing colours
tfs, carla

Hello
Nice shot and excellent POV
and what a great clouds!
The colors of your photo are wonderful! and i think it's a big point to show the beauty of this photo more and more!
I think it needs more than 2 points
Nice job
Good Luck

Interesting Note along with a colorful photo full of intersting light and textures. The wing is needed to make the image I think. Without it, it would have been difficult to find something to focus on:)

interesting note and beautiful colours.
the composition is well done.
thanks for sharing.
Phil

A very rare great shot!
