Sunset, Moon, Jupiter

Clear and a gazillion yesterday, about a quarter moon, right next to Jupiter.

An interesting level of quality available in a handheld iPhone image. Zoom in on the therminator (the line between night and day) on the moon to see the jagged edge caused by craters and mountain ranges.

And you can also pick out the brighter stars of Orion over on the left-hand side.

Calm.

Beautiful.
