Jupiter, Venus & our Moon

Jupiter, Venus & our Moon
Jupiter, Venus & our Moon

On Monday, 1 December Jupiter, Venus & the Moon was in the same area of our night sky. This is a relatively (to us) rare occurrence, the next time this is expected to happen is in 2057 when I’ll be 84!! The really good thing about this event is that it is entirely visible with the naked eye. I took this photo with my Nikon D70 and Tamron 200-500mm lens. The photo was published on DieBurger‘s website.

    Jy moet sien hoe duidelik dit hier by ons in Florida is. So paar weke terug was die twee soos ‘n strooitjie dikte van mekaar af met die maan nie baie verder nie. Ek het nie ‘n foto nie. 😦

    Baie geluk met die plasing van jou foto in die Burger.
