Details:
was filming 2 basejumpers flying off a high cliff at Chamoson in SW Switzerland around sunset, then when nightfall arrived we saw a 'star' just below the crescent Moon... and I was wondering, what is that bright star, there, near the Moon... what star might be near the Moon's orbit ? could it be Regulus ? no.... could it be Aldebaran ? no... Spica ? no... oh wait, it might be... it MUST be Saturn... verify... bingo ! Nice ... so I shot a quick image , handheld but wished now I took the time to put up tripod but I was in a hurry... ya well, next time. here's a quick image handheld with Canon EOS 80D and Tamron 150-600 G2 . It's november 11, 2018 . I dedicate this image to the victims of WWI. Peace on Earth !
