Did i catch Jupiter?

jvk · 16th of November 2010 (Tue)

So i was experimenting shooting the night sky. This is what i saw on my computer afterward and though it was Jupiter. Is that right? Shooting at 400mm i didn't think i would be able to catch it.

I believe last night it was fairly close to the moon around 8:30 - 9:00 EST. If that's where it was then that might be it. I didn't try to shoot it though as I only have a 300mm and didn't think I would be able to get it.

It was close to the moon. So i think i'm correct then.

Yes, Jupiter is very visible in the sky in the northern Americas right now. It's usually the first "star" you can see as the sun sets.

Nice job. You can see the pattern even. =)
