I’ve been loving the photos people have been sharing of the crescent moon and Venus together. I haven’t had a good opportunity to capture them this time around, but I thought I’d repost some favorite images I shot from the Brooklyn waterfront last year. In the second photo, hopefully you can also see Mercury as a faint point of light below the moon, closer to the horizon’s orange glow.

Tonight’s crescent moon
With a planet balancing
On the very tip

Correction: it’s Venus above the moon. Jupiter is away to the right
But Venus doesn’t scan

From the book with the fab cover but not an engraving - an early use of a dot screen for fine art work. The largest sizes will print well in black and white, but test carefully for possible moiré patterns.

An article about a book of German poetry which used this drop cap.
