Sky sights: Tonight’s moon; another look at last night’s rainbow

Incredible sliver moon tonight, just before moonset – didn’t have the camera handy but luckily Christopher Boffoli caught this image a few hours ago, from 33rd SW and Hinds (map). Meantime, Mike Scharer sent his Hamilton Viewpoint shot of last night’s rainbow, too beautiful not to share even though it’s semi-old news by now:

More sunshine due tomorrow, by the way.

    Is there a larger version or a website you can link us to for Mike Scharer? This would be a great picture for giving or as a computer desktop

      I’ll ask him. I believe it’s the first time we’ve received a photo from him so I don’t have a link memorized … TR
