Young moon

[Randitola]

Managed to finally get out again with my camera after a bit of a photo-hiatus! Captured Monday night 1.9 days after New Moon. This moon is 4% lit by the sun. The other 96% is lit by earthshine - light reflecting off the Earth back to the moon.

Cool, dig it a lot. Love the whole thing, street light and all. Great image.

Nice. I like that the shot is minimal yet still has context. :thumbup:

Thanks gang for the encouraging comments....

I always liked shots that take a lot of thought, and minimalistic shots are sometimes the hardest, and this one is done very well Randitola.
