A conjuncture of the Moon, Saturn and Jupiter took place last week....November 18-21.
I planned this shoot in Photo Pills....I wanted to capture the conjuncture with the CJ Brown Dam in the foreground.
I'm pleased with the image. It's a double exposure....exposure one was a 4 second exposure to capture detail in the lake and foreground. The second exposure was a 1/20 second exposure which was spot metered on the moon. This was to be able to capture some details in the moon's surface as well as to get the earthshine of the dark aspect of the moon.

Moon-Saturn Jupiter Conjuncture
Screech Owl at Buck Creek
Our familiar friend has returned again to Buck Creek State Park.
Actually, he is likely there year 'round, but in the winter months we see him roosted in a tree. This is the 4th year we've seen him (maybe her) in this location. Always a treat!!
