Wheatfield Moon and Planets

From right to left: the waxing crescent Moon, the star Spica, Mars (at centre) and Saturn (at left) flanked by stars in Libra, as seen August 1, 2014 over the wheatfield in front of my drivewat in rural Alberta. This is a single 13-second exposure at ISO 800 and f/4.5 with the Canon 60Da and 24mm lens. Exposure metered. The ground and sky were masked and processed differently, to bring out details in the wheatfield and to enhance the twilight sky colors.
