From the photographer: “The morning of February 18, 2023 offered a special chance to view and photograph a 6% illuminated, 27 day old crescent moon at very low altitude at sunrise.

In ancient Greek and Roman art she appeared crowned with the lunar crescent and driving a flying chariot. The 2500 year old temple of Poseidon is located 70km South of Athens, Greece and it is one of the most visited ancient Greek temples in the world. It’s location is perfect for observing and photographing the rising moon from a distance and have this majestic perspective effect.”
