Yes, got to see the show, was aware that it was happening tonight.
Thankfully it was clear at sunset so we got a view of the conjunction and a very pretty sight it was. Managed to take a few images with the 550D and 50mm Zuiko @ f4, increased the iso and reduced the shutter speed to compensate for the darkening sky.
1st image 1/125 @ 400 iso , 2nd image 1/60 @ 3200, shows Mars above Venus as well . Hand held but propped against a wall for support.
