Details:
saw the Moon-Venus close conjunction from Sion Switzerland first at dusk over a mountain, then drove to Montreux and up on hill above to Haut-de-Caux above Montreux as I saw that there were strictly no clouds to the west so it was possible to follow the Moonset way beyond the distant Jura hills, and crescent Moon turned red at Moonset and got bitten off at bottom looking like a red rhinoceros. Shot images handheld with 100-500mm and 600mm lenses on 2 different cameras ( Canon EOS R8, R5C ). Also shot video, will edit asap.
