Dawn

The crescent moon and Saturn just looked beautiful this morning - taken in San Francisco: couldn't sleep for hours so went for a run!

Saturn is at least one whole pixel to the lower right of the moon: didn't dare post in the " Imaging - Planetary" section! Seems like a reasonable altitude compared to back home in Ireland: wish I had my scope with me!

Jupiter and Mars also visible, beautifully strung out in a line with Saturn.  Stunning just plain naked eye

Beautiful! What camera lens and exposure did you uses?
Thanks

Lovely shot Niall. Lucky you being in San Fran!

I was out for a walk at 6.30 and saw the same sight. Didn't catch Saturn for some reason, but Jupiter, Mars and Antares as a lovely orange pair, plus Spica all looked fab, oh yes, and the moon of course!

Just auto on my samsung phone

There were quite a few people with tripods and big lenses taking shots on the piers.
