The waning crescent Moon in the morning sky of March 16, 2015, taken from New Mexico. It shows the Earthshine illuminating the dark night side of the Moon as well as the sunlit crescent. To show both the dark and bright parts of the Moon I created this image from a high-dynamic range (HDR) stack of 6 exposures, from 1/160 sec to 6 seconds at 2-stop intervals, with the Canon 60Da at ISO 100 and with the TMB 92mm apo refractor at f/4.4.
