May Crescent Moon
 

Two day old slender waxing crescent Moon on May 26/27th 2009 in the W-NW twilight sky located in southern Gemini. The 3rd mag star 'Mebsuta' is visible to the upper L. Taken from Maghera. This image was captured just in time before thicker cloud rolled in ahead of a frontal system approaching from the Atlantic Ocean.
