How can the Moon, being next to the Sun, be clearly visible?
I recently stumbled upon this photo:
Posted by a friend of mine on social media. Asserts that this point to the right of the Sun is the Moon.
At first I started arguing that this could not be, I started looking for evidence on the Internet, but I found a similar photo (although I do not exclude the possibility of Photoshop)
: .
I will be glad if someone justifiably confirms or refutes my understanding. Thank you!

Bottom photo - installation. Notice the shadow on the moon. She's on the sunny side.
At the expense of the top photo - I would doubt it. I bet you are being trolled.
At least the moon wouldn't be full.

The full moon is always on the opposite side of the sky from the sun. Those. when the sun sets, the full moon rises, and vice versa. And the angular diameters of the moon and the sun are approximately equal (plus or minus, depending on the point of the orbit). So I would say that the top photo is just some kind of glare.
In the photo above - a speck of dust on the lens or on the matrix.
Photo below - installation.
This is a glare. Look closely - the moon is not green. In addition, this point is located right in the center of another, red highlight. Like lenses on the same axis.
Glare, montage. However, the crescent moon can be seen in blue skies and is quite common to spot.
When I was in the north (Irkutsk). In winter, this phenomenon, especially on cold, clear days (below -50), is a constant phenomenon. In the morning there were 2 luminaries in the sky: both the sun and the moon. So if you want to see it, go north.
But in your photos, it’s definitely a glare and montage.
