Details:
I am pleased to submit my photos. It was an exciting occultation! The Moon covered the double star Zubenelgenubi (α1 /α2 of Libra), just shortly before sunrise. Clouds veiled the moment the Moon blocked the brighter component, α2. However, the rising Sun rendered these clouds fascinating hues. I was not so upset!
