Details:
On 24 May the two day old Moon, Venus and Mercury became visible in the evening sky half-an-hour after sunset despite the glare of a twilight arch. The Moon displaying bright Earthshine was then recorded setting alongside the southern slope of Transmitter Hill from 18.03 to 18.23 in a sequence of 250 stills taken with 1 second exposures at 800 or 1600 ASA and these were used to compile the accompanying x60 speed time-lapse animation. Camera: Tripod-mounted Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ60 in sunset and manual modes.
