Details:
Early in the morning on Saturday 24th May, the Waning Crescent Moon, Venus and Saturn were observed rising from first light to dawn in emerging sunrise tinted sky being encroached by cloud. The beautiful colors are due to foreground illumination from security lights on my house and by early rising sunlight glow being reflected from gradually encroaching cloud. In the first photograph Saturn is clearly visible through a gap in cloud high above the Moon and Venus. Camera: Tripod-mounted Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS40 in manual and sunset exposure modes.
