Waxing moon
Posted by Wesley on
Both the Moon and Venus shared the crescent shape (38% size)
The Moon was photographed right after Venus last Saturday due to its proximity to the planet. It's been more than three months since I took picture of it, so it was an interesting refresher.
The shadows make the craters look more pronounced, which produces a lot more interesting photo than a Full Moon. The little craters inside the "seas" were pretty cool to notice, too. It was the first time I used the Moon & Skyglow filter on the Moon, and I guess that helped, too.
