The thin 41-hour-old crescent Moon in colourful twilight and sunset clouds, setting in the southwest on December 30, 2016. Earthshine is plainly visible illuminating the dark side of the Moon, despite the low atltitude and thin cloud.

This is a single 0.8-second exposure at f/2.8 with the 135mm telephoto and Canon 6D at ISO 400. Shot from home in southern Alberta on the eve of New Year’s Eve!
