07 Jupiter Mercury Venus Conjunction
On 2013-05-26 Mercury, Venus and Jupiter formed a lovely triangle in the western sky after sunset with Mercury actually being the highest of the three in the sky. I climbed to the highest point in Ottawa, the Carlington Summit, to get my best view of the western horizon. You won't be able to see on this low resolution wide field image, but in some of my shots at full resolution Merucury showed a distinct crescent shape.br/Date: 2013-05-26br/ Time: 20:30 EDTbr/ Location: Carlington Summit, Ottawa, ONbr/ Equipment: Canon EOS REBEL T1i DSLR, Sigma 18-300 mm zoom lens br/ Settings: f/7.1, F=100mm, 1/3 s, ISO200
