Crescent Moon, Venus and Jupiter
Originally uploaded by ChathamGardens
The show started just after sunset while there was still a lot of light still in the evening sky. The Crescent Moon floated on some wispy clouds and Venus was faint, but visible. If you click on this picture it will take you to my Flickr page with a few more pictures of tonight's sky show which ended with the photo below.
As an added treat you can see what is known as Earthshine which is caused by sunlight that reflects off the Earth onto the Moon's night side.
