Explanation:
Mars, Antares,
Moon, and
Saturn
are the brightest celestial beacons in
this serene sky.
The Sun's golden light is still scattered along the
southwestern horizon though, captured after
sunset on September 28.
The evening gathering of wandering planets and Moon along
with the
bright star viewed as
an equal to Mars and
the Scorpion's Heart was enjoyed around planet Earth.
But from the photographer's perspective looking across
the calm waters of Lake Balaton, Hungary, they
were joined by a more terrestrial sailboat mast light.
Mast light, bright star, planets and Moon are all posing
near the plane of the ecliptic.
