Conjunction Junction
There was a conjunction of the Moon and the planet Jupiter tonight and this shot is from about an hour ago, just after the sky had gotten good and dark. Jupiter is just below and slightly to the right of the Moon. You can also see three of Jupiter's moons as well.
For the Saturday Self-Challenge group, whose theme this week was "Deep Depth Of Field." The Moon is 238,855 miles away from Earth, while Jupiter is approximately 600 million miles away from Earth. Since both the Moon and Jupiter are in sharp focus, there is 600 million miles worth of depth of field. I doubt anyone else in the challenge this week has more depth of field than that!
I thought of this idea almost immediately this past Sunday, when I heard what the challenge subject was going to be; but I had to wait until tonight, just before the time to post my entry, before I could even take my picture. It stormed and was cloudy until about 7 p.m., so I'm sure glad the skies cleared up or I wouldn't have had an entry!
Oh, yeah: Conjunction Junction.

Eine schöne Idee....
This is so fantastic. I didn't even know about it. (Love the video too!)
This is a truly great depth of field.
HaarFager club has replied to Ko Hummel clubSorry to hear about your cloud cover. It's always disappointing to miss an event you've been looking forward to.

I exposed for the Moon and Jupiter together in the frame, and then in post-processing, lightened up the moons of Jupiter a little so that they would show better. I shot it with a film camera as well, but I have to finish the roll before I can develop it. I used a 1000mm lens with that camera, so maybe it got more detail of Jupiter.
Xata club has replied to HaarFager clubI have a 27" pro apple screen (retina, customized for image work, etc...) and viewing your picture in wide is a great moment!
