This is that picture I was referring to when I mentioned it looks like noon if you have a long enough exposure on just the right night :D
I love the way this picture turned out. Let's look at some of the specifics:
Date taken: December 13th 2008, at precisely 12:53:38 AM
ISO: 100
Aperture: f/5.6
Flash used: No (duh)
Focal Length: 135.0mm
And most importantly:
Exposure: 256.900 Seconds!!!
Yup. Go try those settings out some time on a regular night and you might not get much other than over exposed city lights, but this night was unique. You can read up on it from NASA here and from the typical news resources here
