Crescent moon

The other evening Chaos Boy asked me why the moon has a second moon on top of it. I couldn’t figure out what he meant and went to check. It was a crescent moon, but the part of the moon in shadow was clearly visible.

    I didn't see the moon on that evening but saw it the following evening – and took a photo but didn't come out like yours … sooo you won't see it 🙁 Yours is a super photo !!

  2. What a great shot Jonker. With it being so cold, I never stick my nose out at night so have not seen the moon for a while now. 🙂

    Always nice to see the dark side of the moon. Wonder what your answer to Chaos Boy was. Excellent capture Jonker.

    Children can describe the world in curious ways that adults simply cannot think of! You seldom see a moon like this, though, and his description is perfect!
