Conjunction from A Cloudfree Newcastle ;)
Cloudfree
I got up at 4 wanting to get a rising moon over a Newcastle icon -Nobby's but it was raining. So stayed indoors for the next hour - it cleared slightly with fine mist falling, then at 5.20am an act of diviness happened - the clouds parted revealing a sneak preview showing the crescent moon and two planets, then a small hole and two more appeared. Shot hurriedly from my front veranda with a gorillapod and not my best choice of lense - but it was attached to the camera.
Better than nothing, but looking at some of the other excellent shots of this event, mine is somewhat rather poor. Best intentions, but executed in front of the squad
best pic i got was the icon for the observatory later this morning
