Last night it was a very clear night and so I was surprised just how great the moon looked its at what I think is one of the more interesting phases, in that it's a crescent or wane Moon.
What I like about this phase is that the unlit side of the Moon sort of glows in Earthshine and you can see it but not see it.
Not very far from the Moon in the sky was a really bright star, which when I used an app on the iPad showed me I was looking at a very bright Venus, the app also pointed out where Uranus is but as where I live is rather well light up at night I have no chance of seeing it and also I reckon you need a telescope to see it.
