Sun Setting, Moon Rising

I managed to haul myself out of the flat today. My journey took me to the roof to watch an astronomical phenomenon: Supermoon! And the biggest full Moon rises and the Sun sets within minutes of each other. Due to a murky eastern horizon, I caught the sunset before the moonrise.

But a short while later the Moon shone big and bright above the haze. His facial features were clearly visible to the eye, if not to the camera lens.

The Man in the Moon had his head tilted downwards. I think he was watching the blaze in a sugarcane field near to our flat. Always a spectacular sight.
