Nice captures Doug, I like the second one the best.

I was clouded out for the conjunction of Jupiter and Venus, Hopefully the clouds cooperate tomorrow.

What time did you capture these images?

Thanks Matt,

I like the second one the best too

The first one includes the Brisbane CBD.

I was up at Mt. Coot-tha between about 4am and 5am this morning. First image was at 4:04am, second was my last image at 4:47am.

Then I just enjoyed it visually for a while

Have fun,
Doug

Where on Cootha did you go, Matt? One of the parks? Or the lookout area?

Yep second one gets my vote to. Probably because Jupiter & Venus are centred.
Cheers,
Duncan

Thanks everyone

I took over 50 images. Just picked these two out quickly.

I went to the summit lookout. There was noone else there (could be a different story tomorrow). The view was awesome!

Have fun,
Doug
