There is something just magical about a thin crescent moon. Even though I know about the motions of the moon and planets, I am usually surprised when I catch an unexpected glimpse of a new crescent moon. This happened today when I was going upstairs at dusk and stopped to glance out the window on the landing. What a joy to see this. The thing on the roof is a metal chimney for a wood burning stove in the house next door.
I noticed that last night as well (although I was too lazy to grab my camera). It was cool how you could see the outline of the entire moon.
