Explanation:
Early morning risers were treated to a beautiful conjunction
of Venus and
waning
Crescent Moon on June 24, captured in
this seaside photo
near Belmar, New Jersey, USA, planet Earth.
The serene celestial pairing is seen above the Atlantic
Ocean horizon as the eastern sky grows brighter with
dawn's
early light.
Wispy, scattered clouds appear in silhouette.
But the exposure also reveals the night side of the lunar orb
in the arms of the sunlit crescent.
That shadowed part of the Moon, with hints of the smooth, dark
lunar seas or maria, is illuminated by
Earthshine, sunlight reflected from
planet
Earth itself.
