Aerial photographer Mark Holtzman captured a moment many Georgia and Oklahoma fans won’t soon to forget during Monday’s Rose Bowl game.

Holtzman took a photo during the national anthem prior to kickoff of the B2 stealth bomber flyover of Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif.

Holtzman said on Twitter he was about 5,000 feet above ground in a Cessna 206 airplane above the stadium when he took the photo.
