About this image

A part of a wider angle view of the conjunction. As it was near the field edge lens distortions extended the Pleiades making them look more impressive than they were.

Moon, Mars and Jupiter are obvious but Uranus is less obvious.

Am glad I stayed up for it. Today was better still.
