SETTING SUN, CRESCENT MOON AND VENUS Taken by Peter Lowenstein on October 4, 2016 @ Mutare, Zimbabwe





On 04 October the sky cleared after two days of unexpected early rain to reveal a beautiful sunset. Twenty minutes later the Crescent Moon and Venus appeared over a colored twilight arch. As this faded the sky turned blue and the Crescent Moon displayed Earthshine. Ten minutes later a pair of close stars became visible a short distance above brightly shining Venus.
