Details:
These photos, taken with a Canon Powershot SX60 HS camera between 21:49 and 22:03 UT, show the Moon, Mars, Saturn and Antares as seen from Rio de Janeiro this evening. Internal reflections of the intense glow of the Moon in the lenses of the camera added colorful discs to the images. Surprisingly, the second photo reminds us of the constellation Orion, where reflection has created "a red middle star", amazingly completing "a fake Orion`s Belt in Scorpius", in addition to a larger blue spot.
