Moon and Venus Rising (Dec 9, 2023).jpg
The waning crescent Moon rising in a wide conjunction with Venus in the pre-dawn sky, over a snowy field with a deer posing for the photo! Earthshine lights the dark side of the Moon. This was December 9, 2023.
This is a single exposure of 20 seconds with the Canon RF135mm lens at f/1.8 and Canon R5 at ISO 400, on the Star Adventurer 2i tracker. So the camera was tracking the sky for pinpoint stars but the ground, and deer, are blurred somewhat. Taken from home at 5 am, on a frosty morning after a day of snow.
