Daytime Moon & Jupiter conjunction

About this image

Admired them predawn so decided to observe them when they were closest.  Unfortunately sunrise complicated things but an 807nm filter darkened the sky.  Jupiter and the moon were not processed seperately and composited together.  Only stacked 500 sequential frames to minimise their relative motion.
