Yesterday, the moon and Venus were close in the sky. Today, less so. It really emphasises how fast the moon moves realtive to the rest of the sky. Venus moves too, relative to the "fixed" stars, but much more slowly.

The phone camera makes the sky look a lot pinker than it appeared to the naked eye.
We spent some time observing the moon through binoculars, and the craters stood out well, especially on the terminator. I must learn how to take phone photos through binoculars...
