Hi guys

These images were taken on Saturday afternoon, while scouting for locations for the upcoming Four Planets and Moon Conjunction (http://www.iceinspace.com.au/63-600-0-0-1-0.html).

These images were taken before it got dark. I have some practise conjunction shots with just the 4 planets, but haven't processed them yet.

It was bitterly cold and windy and I forgot gloves and a beanie. Not sure if i'll use that location on Thursday/Friday, but I'd better make my mind up soon! I just hope it's clear!

Canon 40D, 24-105mm lens, ISO200, various exposures, single shots.

Thanks for looking. Comments and suggestions always welcome.

You are fortunate to have a picturesque west facing location for these events Mike. A lake in the foreground is an excellent start.

Nice to see you dropped that last shot in for Striker (hopefully he lurks about occasionally).

Beautiful shots as usual Mike, and lots of potential for the conjunction.

Remember... beanie and gloves... beanie and gloves... beanie and gloves...

Al.

Thanks guys. Looks like the weather will be clear.

Al I had quite a few other pelican shots but decided to scrap them :)

Great shots Mike.
good luch with the Weather for the conjunction.
I like image No: 2 the best, It seems to be balanced nicely,
and has potential for loads of colour in the water and in the sky.
