Very Thin Waxing Crescent Moon

[Joshua Lovatt]

Thought I'd share this rare sight with you all! Taken with my Celestron Nexstar 8se and my Canon EOS 760D on a clear evening.

This Moon is not much a description
but a great deal more an inspiration.

Lovely shot, and ditto to K's comment

That's nice. How old was the moon at the time? (How many hours past the new moon?) Trying to capture the moon as new as possible is a project that's been in the back of my mind for a while.

The next new moon is at 20:45 on Thursday, so if the sky is clear on Saturday evening....

Very nice, minimalist fine art.
