Artist's Comments

On the night of the 1st december, 2008 a rare celestial view in australia saw the crescent moon line up with jupiter and venus providing the eyes to form a naturally occurring smiley. Unfortunately cloud cover prevented any better shots!

This is a great shot. I was able to see this too, unfortunately my camera is too slow.


Again, good photo.

I like how the clouds are there too, it adds a little effect, but I completely understand what you mean.

Ha, nice shot. Mine came out similar to yours when I set my camera to a slower shutter speed. I like the effect on yours though. :)
