Moon with Jupiter, Mars and Mercury. Moonlight from the crescent Moon (upper right) reflects from the sea below. Three planets are visible to the left of the Moon, forming a diagonal line corresponding to the ecliptic, the plane of the planetary orbits. At top left is Jupiter (brightest), with Mars at upper centre (directly left of the Moon), and Mercury on the same line, below and to the left of the Moon. Photographed from Buenos Aires, Argentina, on 4 August 2013.
