Explanation:
In this engaging scene from planet Earth, the Moon shines through cloudy skies
following sunset on the evening of September 8. Despite the fading light, the
camera's long exposure still recorded a colorful, detailed view of a shoreline
and western horizon looking toward the island San Gabriel from Colonia del
Sacramento, Uruguay. Lights from Buenos Aires, Argentina are along the horizon
on the left, across the broad Rio de la Plata estuary. The long exposure
strongly overexposed the Moon and sky around it, though. So the photographer
quickly snapped a shorter one to merge with the first image in the area around
the bright lunar disk. As the the second image was made with a telephoto
setting, the digital merger captures both Earth and sky, exaggerating the young
Moon's slender crescent shape in relation to the two nearby bright stars. The
more distant is bluish Spica, alpha star of the constellation Virgo. Closest to
the Moon is Earth's evening star, planet Venus, emerging from a lunar occultation.
