earthshine and occulation

hello,

at 10pm today (april 30), I setup my william optics Z80 in my backyard, to photograph
earthshine, it was cloudy, but the moon was visible at that time. The Z80 delivered beautiful
images, in fact I saw a star disappear behind the moon at 10.09pm CET (my location is Utrecht,
the Netherlands, does anyone know which star this is?). An image I took this evening can be
seen in alt.binaries.pictures.astro.
