Moon and Venus Conjunction

I really didn't think I'd get to see this today - it was raining all night, but a strong wind this morning blew enough of the clouds away to capture the nice pairing in the pre-dawn sky.

The wide shots were taken with the Sigma 17-70 and the close-up was with the Canon stock 75-300mm @ 300mm.

Unfortunately I wasn't able to stop at a nicer location for the foreground, but with clouds looming I had to take what I could get.

Thanks for looking.
