The moon last night was bonkers cool, and cute lil Jupiter is there too!

#AlicePics #Astrophotography #NightSky

A shot of the moon in a black sky. There are fast-moving clouds creating a large glowing blur with sepia edges as they pass in front. Just off to the side, Venus appears as a bright pinpoint of light.

@alice That’s beautiful! I can’t even stay awake long enough to see the moon these days.

@matty the photo hardly does it justice too; the clouds were speeding past it at a good clip, and there'd be patches of clear moon-bunny, followed by candle-behind-parchment glow. I'm amazed how bright Jupiter was too.

@alice I’ve been seeing a bright light near the moon for the last couple nights. I had no idea it was probably Jupiter!

How do you know? Is there a guide I can consult?

@Aprazeth it's Jupiter anyway; I had a goldfish moment while writing the description.

You got distracted by an amazingly enchanting moon. That's completely understandable, I too can get flustered by a good moon.

Bad puns aside, it genuinely is a nice shot

@alice It wasn't Venus, but Jupiter.
