Harlem Planets

[Fermenter]

This is an old photo shot with my 40D in 2012. This is from my fire escape in Harlem, Manhattan, March 2012 of the conjunction of Jupiter & Venus on the night of their closest approach when they were only 3 degrees apart in the sky. Just goes to show that you can do astrophotography even in the most light polluted of locations. Here is a celestial event as seen from "the city that never sleeps." Don't let your location get in the way of appreciating the night sky.
