The Moon & Venus setting

Fancied a change tonight so had a play with the SLR instead of the telescope.


The moon looked great next to Venus go grabbed a couple of shots.


The second shot is way overexposed but I quite like the effect.


The bright star just below and to the right of the moon is Aldebaran.

Nice pics Dave, the Moon and Venus looked great together last night.

I had been to a mates house to check out a few mods on his dob and hunt down half a doz galaxies in Leo and M3, but could not see moon and Venus from his backyard, but they looked fab in the sky on the drive back home... About 10.30pm... Cheers!
