Proud Evening Star

Even though I had to get up at 5:00 the next morning, I couldn't resist, so here is a photo of the moon and the stars from last night.

It actually started out as me trying to just get the stars to show up on the camera so I could figure out which ones they were because, moments before when I looked at a spring star map, some of the placing of the bright stars didn't make sense. It was probably the moon (or possibly the clouds even if they were small and very few) that impeded my sight of most of the dimmer stars that I was looking for.
