Mercury, Venus, and the Young Crescent Moon

Hey! The moon shared the evening sky with the Evening Star and Mercury on the evening of the 18th. I was able to get a picture of the trio in between some clouds. I used a Finepix S700 camera with a 2 second exposure and six power optical zoom.

Look for the trio on the 19th after sunset.

Earthshine is visible on the young waxing crescent moon. Venus, the Evening Star this sprig and summer is located to the moon's right. And you can see fainter Mercury to the upper right of Venus.
