Waning Crescent Moon... looke like an eclipse

[Rehesan]

Yesterday early morning (6:00 am) I went out for work and I look up to the sky and saw a very beautiful moon scene. I thought it was a lunar eclipse so I ran into the house to get my gear and this is the result:




After do a quick search on google, I learned the moon was on the Waning Crescent phase.

Thanks for viewing.

Beautiful, it does look like an eclipse and you've captured it so well.

Thanks for all your comments.

It really looks like an eclipse, right?, that is what I really liked of that scene.

Very nicely done! Not to be a "know it all," but the star to the right of the moon is Antares in the constellation Scorpius. I saw the moon pass very close to this star a couple of days ago. Nice capture.

That's cool, well done :-)
