Around 21:00 local time the moon was below the horizon over Bucharest — it was a waning crescent that night, just not up yet. Local time here is estimated from Bucharest's longitude rather than looked up from a timezone database — within about an hour almost everywhere (see the free generator for the same trade-off spelled out).
