Day Moon

Moon over Miami at 5PM. There is a proverb that says "opposite as sun and moon" because it is believed they never appear at the same time in the sky. But that is not entirely true, at least not here in Miami. Here is the Miami moon casting on a beautiful blue sky and the sun is not yet setting. It will set at 5:30 PM in direction 245° West-Southwest, about seven more minutes from the time of this blog. Note that the foreground blur is not any dark clouds. That is the foliage of my flowering hedge. The moon is in the due Eastern sky and the sun is beginning to set behind me. South is to the right.
