Details:
Clear skies in the evening of Tuesday 10th November provided good views of the 2% illuminated 38-hour old Crescent Moon setting over Chikanga Township to the WSW of Mutare. The Moon was close to the Scorpius Star Fang at the foot of the Orion Constellation which includes the red giant star Antares. The descent of the Moon was captured in two consecutive video clips followed by a time-lapse animation of 80 consecutive four-second still images taken between 6.55 and 7.11 pm in which it sets behind Hospital Hill. Camera : Tripod-mounted Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ60 in sunset and manual exposure modes.
