On this very cold but very clear night, the aging Waning Moon shown brightly from the East.  I could see it easily despite my trees.  All their leaves are gone, opening up views to me normally blocked during the warmer times of the year.

The Closest of the Bright Objects

This is what I would call a rare-angle Moon, as it catches the light of a Sun still over eight hours away from reaching the horizon.  Clouds and snow return tomorrow, but if the view is still open by morning, I will try to take another picture.  I’m guessing the Moon at this point in time tonight was no more than 30 degrees off the horizon.

Oh, and I almost forgot…this was taken with my DSLR camera only, using the long lens for higher magnification.

I am the founder and creative director of Computer Looking Up. I have been fascinated by space since childhood. My interest in technology also runs deep, rooted in fond memories of the CRT-anchored desktops my father tinkered with in the early 1980s. Professionally, I have spent over 30 years immersed in the technology sector, serving in capacities ranging from programming and IT to project management. Outside of work, my passions lie in astrophotography, astronomy, and philosophy. Through ComputerLookingUp.com, I explore these interests and aim to build a community where we can share insights—I hope you will join the conversation.
