Venus and Jupiter near conjunction, June 29, 2015

This image shows Jupiter and Venus last night, June 29, 2015, at about 8:50 pm EDT.  This is a small crop of an image taken with my 200 mm lens plus a 2x teleconverter, for an effective focal length of 400 mm.

You can make out the four Galilean moons of Jupiter at the top right.  (Callisto is the most elusive.)  I added insets (with less exposure) to show the shape and appearance of Jupiter and Venus.  The crescent shape of Venus can be seen easily.

Technical details: All images taken at f/11 effective aperture, ISO 400, on a Canon 6D camera.  Main image: 0.6 second exposure.  Jupiter inset: 1/20 second.  Venus inset: 1/320 second.  Processed and assembled using Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop.
