Here's the best of the shots I took yesterday of the Jupiter, Moon and Venus grouping. Not quite a conjunction but close enough :)
The clouds were sooo annoying, almost every shot had either venus or jupiter behind the clouds.

Here's one I also took at 3x optical zoom. 7s exposure on this one.

The trio made a great sight this morning as well, wish I had the camera again.. They made a great looking diagonal line, from Jupiter, to Venus and then a slither thin crescent moon down low (and large) on the horizon.. Looked great.
