what's dec 1st?

Beautiful shot!

Adrena1in · 18th of November 2008 (Tue)

Wow, what lovely colours. Keep shooting as on the 30th they'll be really "close".

On December the first the moon will be in the frame as well, making for a potential great photo, and the first Monthly Challenge as set up by me!

Are those hot-pixels in your image?

Celestron · 18th of November 2008 (Tue)

I can't see any...unless you're referring to the stars?

There's a turquoise dot almost half-way in-between Venus and Jupiter.

Thanks for all the comments. December 1 is when the moon will join the two and they will all be close enough to fit into a 200mm frame. Great photo opportunity.

I dont think there are any hot-pixels, all those dots are visible stars

It's just that I've never seen a star with turquoise color... perhaps my monitor is off?

Adrena1in · 18th of November 2008 (Tue)

Sometimes stars appear turquoise or purple depending on the lens.

Here is one I grabbed earlier tonight, This one is even better!

Apparently (and I get this from a good source) women come from Venus... and (get this) men come from Mars.

Personally, I come from Jupiter.

Nice second shot! I would be sorely tempted to clone out the lights in the treeline. Nice tasty colors.

I've really got to try and find me a good site with some interesting foreground where I can go to shoot Venus and Jupiter as they get closer and closer to each other. Lovely shot there with the Pier.

And for the record, I come from a planet somewhere in the Vicinity of Rigel.
