This is a view of the young crescent moon with earthsshine, just 27 hours 01 minute old and 1.8% illuminated. It was taken 49 minutes after local sunset when the moon was about 6 degrees altitude. Although most of the sky was overcast at the time, luckily it was relatively clear along the western horizon.
