Description:
Captured on the afternoon of April 4, 2025, just before sunset in Coachella, California, this image showcases the Moon in its Waxing Crescent phase at 47% illumination. The warm daylight sky offered a soft contrast that emphasized the rugged lunar surface — a striking reminder of the Moon’s visibility even during daylight hours. Shot with a Nikon D7200 and a 200–500mm f/5.6 lens, the image was carefully focused and edited to highlight crater detail and subtle shadow gradients created by the sun’s low angle on the Moon.
