Not having a fakebook account, I can't see what time he took the photo, but he posted it at 2:29 AM on the 22nd ... which suggests slightly after sunset on the 21st and according to the Photographers Ephemeris, he would have had a 2.94% Crescent Moon +8.67° above the horizon at 7:43 pm (19:43) local time.

The sun would have been -8.34° below the horizon.

I think it's Photoshop too, but it could have been done in camera with a high enough ISO & the star trails look like a fairly long exposure.

I'm sure he or she had fun creating it. There's a small crescent moon
visible in the top left corner.

photoshop spotted! The light on the turtle comes from the back. Looks like
a wide angle shot which renders the comet smaller as it is now. And the
sunset is too bright for stars to appear in the red. Not to mention the
comet as bright as a setting sun.

Nice image nevertheless

Yep. Photoshop composite.
