Devils Courthouse is an iconic rock outcropping at 5,240ft elevation along the Blue Ridge Parkway. It offers an unobstructed view to the horizon. I enjoy capturing small moons and this night the moon was at 1.2% waxing and set 50 minutes after the sun so I figured there would be a good chance to catch it. It was impossible to spot live, even with the live-view zoomed in, so I just did several panorama passes from 6:20 - 6:25 and this one shot captured not only the thin moon but also Mercury just to the right.

Adjusted highlights, shadows, white balance, and dehaze to help bring out the faint crescent moon and Mars low on the horizon.
