Four Planets and Moon Conjunctions from August 2010

[iceman (Mike)]

Hi guys

These photos are of a different four-planet conjunction back in August 2010. I found them while organising my photos and realised I hadn’t posted them.

The first set was taken on the 7th August at The Entrance, NSW. It was the preparation shoot for the week after, when the Crescent Moon would be joining them. I had posted my sunset photos from the same day here, Sunset at The Entrance, August 2010.

The week after, the Crescent Moon joined the show. It was a terribly cold and windy night and I was never really happy with these shots, which is probably why I never posted them. They’re noisy and just didn’t capture the scene how I imagined.

In these photos, Venus is the bright one, Mars is at top, Saturn to the right, and Mercury is the lowest one.

haha none from this set, Dave.

Haven't entered anything yet - waiting to see what comes of the 30th/31st first.

I hope it's clear!

Poor David, he's going to get a million conjunction entries this year.
