No photos taken, just nekkid eye observation last night - pretty neat! Per
the S&T bulletin I found it just to the right of Mercury, very close to the
horizon. I found it first in 8.5x44 binocs, then a little later with my bare
eyes right at the 21-1/2 hour old mark. The thin crescent looked all broken
up. No, it wasn't crying, it was just alternate light and darker areas. It
seemed odd that I could see the moon naked-eye, but not Mercury.
