View at EarthSky Community Photos. | Ragini Chaturvedi in New Jersey caught the moon and planet Venus in a fiery sunset sky on November 7, 2021, and wrote: “It was a flaming red golden hour at sunset today. Then, in after glow, the crescent moon and Venus conjunction in those clouds made the ambiance pretty.” Thank you, Ragini! Watch this post for more moon and planet photos.

The moon was new on November 4, 2021, and now the young moon – a waxing crescent – has returned to the evening sky. There was a glorious moon and Venus Sunday evening, November 7. Did you see them? In the coming days, the moon will be moving up past the planets Saturn and Jupiter in the evening sky. The planets in the evening sky are spectacular now and about to be more so!

There were only 8 keeper images. I had a very short window between clouds… so the shots were taken through electric wires across the street from my home. Some shots were shorter exposures and some longer. I like how this one turned out with the most earth shine of the 8 pics.” Thank you, Steve!
