The waxing 3-day-old crescent Moon in the evening sky over Red Rock Coulee Natural Area in southeast Alberta. The Sun has set at the point on the horizon at far right, at the edge of the dark cloud of forest fire smoke. This image serves as an illustration of the angle between the sunset point and waxing Moon. This is a 9-exposure high dynamic range blend to preserve details in the bright sky and dark ground. Tone mapped with Adobe Camera Raw.
