My only image that I successfully caught the crescent Moon and Venus.

Well done for capturing that Rachel. Something odd has happened to the sky colour though and the "Red Devil" Moon. ;) :lol:

I went for the same shot last night but binned the results as I was trying to get Aldebarran (and thought I had it) plus DSS wouldn't stack my 10 frames due to "not enough stars". :roll:

I'm bemused, I thought that Venus was to the right of the moon at the two o'clock position at the moment. :-?
