Photo of Venus near the moon

Heard from a friend that Venus was visible very close to the moon. So, rushed home to take a photo with my D-70 and 70-300mm lens. The photo below was taken around 8 pm Cyprus Time. Yes, you could argue that i just took a photo of the moon and added a dot with photoshop :-)

I have taken better pictures of the moon in the past, like the ones below. If you are interested in taking good photographs of the moon, check out my tips and tricks for better moon photography.
