2nd New Moon Sighted 22/04/2012 From Dominica

Did you search for and sight the second new moon?
Sunset was at 18:22. Nine minutes later at 18:31, I caught sight of the second new moon from Roseau, Dominica this evening Sunday 22nd April 2012 from where I was standing on the beach directly at the exit point of the Roseau (Queen's) River behind the New Roseau Market. There was of course a bit of scattered clouds at sunset as can be seen in these accompanying photos

     It was 18:49:48 when Deacon Russell Bertrand called me from his home village of Dublanc informing of his sighting. Upon arriving in the village from his garden he saw it and called me with his confirmation.
     I left off looking at and photographing this 22/04/2012 evening new moon at 19:08.
 
Elder Locksley Joseph called in from Trinidad at 2148 (-4 GMT) just after arriving home from new moon service informing me that his wife gave him a call from home while he was in service that she has seen the new moon.
 
A sister in the faith where I fellowship e-mails to me the next morning 23/04/2012 at 0527 (-4 GMT): "Ok brother Paul.
I did see the moon on the 22nd it was rather beautiful. Just a llittle after six." -Nathalise Modest
 
A happy, successful and productive second new moon day filled with Yahweh's blessings this Monday 23rd April 2012 to all.
 
Shalom and Yahweh bless,
