Description

Image taken from the shore of the Atlantic Ocean at Assateague State Park in Maryland on the night of Sept 22, 2018 (12:23 AM). The moon was 91% illuminated and the beach looked like it was daytime! No deep sky imaging this night... Mars is visible to the lower right of the moon. The bright star to the upper right is Altair. Earlier that night, just after sunset, we were treated to the sight of four planets (Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, and Mars) along with the Moon forming a glorious arc across the southern sky.

Imaged with Nikon D750 and Rokinon 14mm lens at F/3.5. Exposure 6 seconds at ISO-800. Raw image file processed in Astra Image (stretched, sharpened, contrast enhanced).
