Today was the last day one could see the moon before the new moon on December 26, 2019 which is an "old moon". It is the phase of the phase of the moon lying between last quarter and new moon, when it appears as a waning crescent. Especially on Christmas Day today, the moon was only 1.9% illuminated at 6.30 am in the morning today when the photo was taken. The moon is also getting closer to the sun for tomorrow's annular solar eclipse which will be visible in Singapore if the skies are clear.
