Beautiful new Moon joins Venus at twilight

Tonight the thin sliver of the New Moon was just below the planet Venus at sunset. To make an even more spectacular grouping, the bright stars Aldebaran and Capella were nearby. Changing the exposure and cropping in, the rest of the Moon (illuminated by earthshine) was a terrific sight. You can also see some of the bright stars of the loose cluster, the Hyades. Worth a look tomorrow!
