Image Details:

It was cloudy in the afternoon through evening on 7 & 8 September 2022.

I combined some pictures i took on the night of September 7 & 8, 2022.

On September 7, around 6.18 pm, I photographed the moon from my kitchen window at home. I love seeing its reflection in my window.

Then at 8.32 pm, from the same place, I saw a bright spot on the left side, while the moon was not visible, probably covered by clouds or moved higher. Then I combined those two images.

I realized the bright spot was Saturn, after I read @earthskyscience posted on September 7, 2022, about the waxing gibbous passes by Saturn on September 7 & 8,

Last night, at 7.52 pm, from the same place, I also took the picture of the moon and Saturn when they both seen together.

I marked the moon & Saturn positions on September 8th, in blue..enjoy it ! 🔵💙
