A 2-1/2 day old crescent moon, and Saturn, float among the stars of Aquarius in evening twilight.

Saturn is the brightest 'star' in the upper left portion of the frame.

Top center of the frame is the star φ Aquarii.

A few other stars of Aquarius are visible, including some that are very close to the moon's disk.

Thank you!

And I enjoyed looking at it with my one eye that has a new/artificial lens, lol! The sky was extra blue!

Oh, are you getting your cataract surgery? I know it's weird to say, but I'm really looking forward to that. 😅

I understand your happy anticipation.

First eye was done on Tuesday. Healing up normally so far.

I was awake for the procedure. They gave me Versed to alleviate anxiety. (And my personal coping mechanism was to talk non-stop about stuff...my time in Uzbekistan, etc. That kept my mind off the surgery and my overactive imagination.)

Glad it went well! I got ICLs when I was younger and they've been great but as I get older, my vision is changing and it'll be nice to get it cleared up.
