Another Venus and Jupiter conjunction image

[pluto]

This is the first time I've tried planetary imaging with my STT8300 as I couldn't be bothered swapping everything around to grab the conjunction. Anyway this is a stack of about 140 x 0.1 second OIII images (OIII looked better than Ha, and I can't take exposures short enough that R, G, and B aren't blown out)

The attached image has obviously had the planets brought closer to make it easier to see. A full image is here: https://hughsblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/07/jupven1.jpg
