•  Info Created, uploaded and nominated by me. After Cart's try to get a FP status for a photo with the sun and the moon in the same image (see this one and this one), this is my attempt. Same as the Cart's images, this photo was taken very close to the winter solstice (down here pretty much today). It's a beach with sand dunes in South New Brighton, Christchurch, New Zealand -- Podzemnik (talk) 07:03, 21 June 2019 (UTC)

•  Support and a very Happy Midsommarafton (today) from Sweden to you! (FYI, summer solstice is bigger than Christmas up here.) I'm so glad I could inspire someone to have a go at this. Since you have so much nicer landscape down there, your photo is way better than mine. :) I actually did manage to get both celestial bodies in a single frame on the new moon right after that winter solstice, but the moon was so faint then you can't find it without an image note. --Cart (talk) 07:24, 21 June 2019 (UTC)

Haha happy Midsommarafton to you too :) Yes, you definitely inspired me! I have to admit that it was tricky to get them both together. I figured that the best chance I have was on the beach where the sun rises up first and where I had enough free space to span 120 degrees panorama. Also, I wanted the landscape to be interesting but not much so the viewer wouldn't focus on it too much. By the way, Sweden has a very lovely landscape, too. I've been there twice. I always admired your wilderness. --Podzemnik (talk) 07:38, 21 June 2019 (UTC)

In short, my photos were the crash test dummies for this perfect one. Btw, you made my day. :) --Cart (talk) 07:45, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
