Moon and Venus from this morning

Woke up to tidy up my gear from evening imaging around 6am and was greeted by a lovely conjunction of Venus and the crescent moon. Could not resist giving it a go with my Canon 1000D on a fixed tripod.

lovely Earthshine too a really nice surprise.

Great images Jonathan - especially like the one with the branch in the foreground, give good scale to the image. Nicely caught!

It was a lovely sight wasn't it? I watched it from about 5am - 7am.
