Moon Jupiter conjunction

Got up early this morning knowing we had clear skies for a change, so that I could capture the conjunction. Was a lovely morning to be out there and managed a few images, with a surprise. Looked up from the camera at one stage in time to spot a moving line of light, travelling from SW to SE about 15 deg altitude. Elon Musks' Starlink 5 satellite train, bugger. Interesting for curiousity value for now but would rather they weren't being sent up to pollute our skies.
Details, Canon 450d, Zuiko 28mm lens 5.0 seconds @ 1600 iso. For the locals, taken from the tip of Kuradgi, Sandon Point.
