I didn't realize how good this image is until a day or two ago! This is probably the best post new moon photo I've ever taken.

Your praise carries a lot of weight. I am very touched!

I feel the same, and I'm astonished that I got this good image more than a year ago.

I'd found this image on Facebook in my memories. I scarcely remembered taking it! And then it dawned on me just how good it is. I just put it up on Instagram too.
