Conjunction

[multiweb]

Adding to the chorus of terrific conjunctions pics let me spam just a little bit more :lol: ;)

Took this one from Cootamundra just the day before the whole Indian ocean fell from the sky.

FSQ106N - ASI462MC - Astronomik 742nm IR filter on G11. 30s 8bit SER files. Shot through thin clouds.

...and some widefields. As you can tell it started with blue skies then turned to sh|t pretty quick.

Well done, great captures, both close and wide and a nice sunset too.

A frog in water, wading through the sky pool, awesome results Marc

Thanks guys. I would have liked less clouds to get more moons in the shot but I guess I can't complain too much about the weather as it was atrocious on the whole east coast so pretty happy to go home with something.

I wouldn't call it a nice sunset. More of a $#$!!$#$!&#!$ of a sunset.

Most excellent :thumbsup: (I had no luck at all :cloudy: :cloudy: )

Looks great Marc. A lovely series of images (yes even the sunset)

Very nice Marc. At least you saw some of it ...

Great shots Marc. Good to see the whole story well detailed.

Thanks guys. I think it hasn't stopped raining here since I last took those shots. :lol: Not complaining though. The garden has never been so green. Loving it and the mild temperatures too.

I have dumped all my planetary shots this season in here (https://onedrive.live.com/?authkey=%21ACnUIS%5FstUVCu%2Ds&id=6930D3AD12D5044C%2112548&cid=6930D3AD12D5044C). The good, the bad and the ugly. Until next year. :thumbsup:

That's a really nice collection of the event, a good mix of widefield and close-in images, well done.
