Around this time of the #LunarCycle, the #Moon is very close to the position of the #Sun in the sky and so to get a picture of it, you either have to be up just before dawn for the #OldMoon and just after dusk for the #NewMoon. The actual new Moon was yesterday but this evening, I managed to capture this thin sliver of a #WaxingCrescent. Of course it’s very dim at present and so I had to use a #tripod.
