Moon and Venus over Geppetto Towers

[geppetto]

Blimey, it's cold out there...

Beautiful sky though and one of the best earthshines on the moon

I've seen for a long while 8)

Took a couple of snaps with the Nikon 5400.

Tree got in the way with one of them, pretty though

Phil, both shots are little crackers, I'm leaning more towards the 2nd shot though, I love the sillohette of trees... 8) Good to see old lunar again 8)

I just took the same thing! Just copying it down to my HD now to see how it turned out.

Thanks folks

Know what you meen Caz, there's something about trees, they scale the picture nicely.

To be honest I was trotting about trying to compose the shot so that the moon and Venus were

in the tree but not covered by it but there were too many branches

[SteelRat]

Great shots Phil. Second one's a beauty 8)

Nice ones Phil, the trees do add something. The second pic. is especially aesthetic. I hope the spell checker got that right.

Left mine in the camera when I saw yours Phil. Can't even think about posting them now. First one for me I'm afraid 'cos I don't like trees getting in the way.
