About this image

Jupiter on its way to rendezvous with Venus a day before closest approach. With clouds predicted for the next evening I ventured out with camera & tripod to grab a few shots of the conjunction around my home town of Towson, MD. This image catches them adjacent to the iconic clock tower at Towson University. Composite image shot at 55mm f/13, two images (2.5 secs, 0.8 secs) combined in Photoshop
