Description

Today the sky smiled brightly at me, its blush uninterrupted to the horizon sent an invitation, and the croissant of the Moon in the ashen glow at a poor few degrees, as the model lined up for the photo session.

In today's venture, it wasn't about the thin croissant as such, it was about a photo where you can see a lot of detail and can be reliably identified.

Moon 1 day and 7.5 hours before the new moon (-31h), on September 16, 2020 at 5.30am, only 9 degrees above the horizon. Weak conditions - the picture is shaky, changing. The sky is clear to the horizon, plus 16 degrees, humid. Southwest libration (W -4.6°; S -6.1°). Mosaic of the two images. Resize 50%
