      Conjunction with Venus. Not sure about the 3rd light. Generic star or far away galaxy maybe.
      Edit – /u/mxrider255 beat me to it, Regulus is the 3rd.

    2. Edit: The one with the crescent is our own moon

      The bright one was Venus, the slightly dimmer one was Regulus

      Regulus is about 79 light years away from us

      Venus is about 2 to 14 light minutes away from us

    3. Photons, most likely. Although, people exposed to Intense radiation can can visual stimulation known as phosphenes, in which case you have bigger worries.

    4. Took the exact same picture the other morning. Venus and Regulus. And then obviously the crescent moon lol.

    5. I wonder if OP is thinking about how you can see a bit of the moon illuminated but the rest of it is more clearly visible than usual as well.

      I don’t know but I had the immediate urge to yell, “Lisan al Gaib!”

    7. What everyone is omiting is that the “dark side” of the moon is illuminated by the earth. The light our planet reflects. Earthshine as oposite of the night light we get on full moon… moonshine.
