Ramadan Crescent with 1st and 8th planets!

The sky clarity was unbelievably good tonight, enabling some mesmerizing views of the sunset, twilight and crescent moon along with a beautiful line up of planets. The clarity was so good that I spotted the crescent moon at sunset at 06:03 PM with the naked eye, just a minute after sunset. I was also able to capture planets Mercury and Neptune along with this beautiful slender crescent tonight which marks the start of the month of Ramadan in Pakistan and most south east Asian countries. May this month bring peace and prosperity across the globe.
