Venus & Moon just before occultation

In early morning of Aug 14, 2012, the Venusian occultation was observed in Japan. Unfortunately it was bad weather condition, I took this sky event through considerably thick clouds. You can see the half-moon shaped venus crossed the southern part of 25.6 aged Moon.
