Description

A sliver of a crescent (3.5%) and what would otherwise be the dark side of the moon, illuminated by earthshine after sunset. It doesn't often happen the moon is low in the sky to catch it & the sunset colors and I am not working and have the camera handy. On this day too was the best example of earthshine I've photographed yet. This was a single exposure from my front yard on a regular tripod.

2", f2.8, iso 1600
