Saturn just to the left of  the waxing Moon with the head of the Scorpion above it. Imaged with my Canon IXUS, 400 ASA, 3.5 second exposure on 19 September 2015 at around 18:56 ACST. Click to embiggen (especially if you want to see Saturn clearly). Saturn just to the left of  the waxing Moon with the head of the Scorpion above it.

Got a quick shot of the Moon forming a triangle with Saturn and the head of the Scorpion last night, while setting up for a sleep-over for SmallestOne. It looked lovely, although in images the Moon is overexposed. Got to see the ISS skim just above the horizon just after these images were taken.
