VLT telescopes under the Moon

A beautiful young Moon with the Earthshine appeared in the dusk sky over the dome of ANTU telescope of ESO VLT. Thin clouds were quickly dissipating, but scattering sunset colours, making the view such vivid. Also, one of the Auxilliary Telescopes can be seen in the foreground. Captured on 4 July 2019.
