Excellent. Well done. In that second shot you can see Mars quite clearly.
Thanks for the exposure info.
Not so close together tonight but possible get them in the frame perhaps.
Cheers.

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.
