Jupiter / Saturn conjunction 19/12 and 20/12

Post by rsfoto »

Hi,

I was able to shoot the conjunction on December 19 as well as 20 but 21 was clouded out.

I was not very much interested in getting fetails of the planets. I found that seeing a lot of Moons of both planets more interesting.

It was shot with 530 mm focal length and LRGB filters.

We where lucky no collisions happened between them :mrgreen:

Thanks for looking

Here the shots and I took some time to label some information.
