It is one of the most touching scenes in movie history.
The moment in ET that the silhouette of Elliott and his alien friend fly across the full moon on their way to the forest has been lauded the most magical moments in cinema.
It was, of course, the result of clever use of special effects, but now one Swiss photographer has shown how the same picture could be almost replicated with no tricks. Just a lot of patience.
Magical: Swiss photographer Philipp Schmidli waited four months to capture this breathtaking image of a cyclist dwarfed by the rising full moon
Iconic: The most famous image from SSteven Spielberg's 1982 film ET shows the alien flying across the face of the moon in a bicycle basket
All good things: Bad weather thwarted Mr Schmidli's attempts to capture the image in January, February and March. He finally got the photo as clouds cleared last week
Research: The scene had been decided on following hours of exploration on Google Earth, searching for the perfect location on which to frame the image
Technique: In order to have the moon dwarf the cyclist, Mr Schmidli needed a large gap between the camera and the hill and took the photo from nearly a mile away
Mr Schmidli's set up: He shot the final set of photos from nearly a mile away using a professional-grade Canon 1D X digital SLR camera, fitted with a 600mm f/4 telephoto lens with an additional 2.0x extender cap. The camera was set to ISO 2500, with an aperture of f/25 and a shutter speed of 1/250s
