Image Details:

The waning crescent moon about 6.5% full this morning and about 378,280 km away from Earth seen in the morning in the East. The sun was about to rise approximately in 10 minutes from the east(when this picture was taken) and the sky had become bright with orange some 30 minutes earlier. That explains why this picture was orange in colour, and the moon was still clearly visible to the naked eye. The moon will disappear in the sun's glare over the next 2 days and hopefully it is still visible tomorrow on 31 Mar 2022, the last day of the month.
