Moon below Saturn/Mars/Spica conjunction

Hi all,

Here's another quick image with my new Tokina 11-16 lens. This one is a 10 sec exposure at 11mm, f/3.2 and 400 iso. That's a cyclist returning home on the bike track in the distance.

Cheers,
Stephen

Hope for good weather tomorrow and Wednesday, Stephen.

Tuesday the four of them will be within 13 degrees at around 21:00 (not long before moonset), and Wednesday within 6 degrees at 18:00. (They will be closer earlier but not as easy to see all four.)

Wide field opens up so many possibilities :) nicely done.

I like it, too!
A few days ago I was a bit scared when the clouds broke up and I discovered an unexpected straight line of 3 lights....
UFO hovering over Auckland? :eyepop:
