Hi All,

Seems like ages since I posted here because of the separation of Solar System and Deep Sky but here's a shot of the conjuction as it looked tonight from St. Pete Beach, Fl. Nikon D70 and 18~70mm lens at 55mm.

Best,

Thanks Guys!! I looked through all the shots more carefully and found this shot taken early in the shoot with a crepuscular ray actually pointing to the conjunction. Is this a coincidence or what?

Best,

Jose
