The waxing crescent Moon in the evening sky from Australia, April 11, 2016, from Tibuc Cottage. Earthshine lights the dark side of the Moon. Aldebaran is the star to the lower left of the Moon in the tree branches.
The waxing two-day old Moon in the evening sky from Australia, to the right of the silhouette of the dome of the AAT Observatory on Siding Spring Mountain, with the last of the sunset colours to the west at left. Note the Moon looks “upside down” compared to the northern view of an evening crescent Moon. Clouds are bloating the image of the Moon to look more like a quarter than a crescent. This is a 2-panel panorama with 3-second exposures with the 35mm lens and Canon 6D. Taken from Tibuc Road, near Siding Spring Observatory. Stitched with Adobe Camera Raw.
