Festive Lights Above and Below

Thursday, December 2, 2021


A planetary alignment on Tuesday evening, November 30, 2021 augmented nicely the festive terrestrial Christmas lights seen in this SSW view at 5:30 pm CST from Hampshire Circle in Marion, Iowa. Air temperature was 40 degrees F. The three planets were, from top-to-bottom: Jupiter (magnitude -2.29), Saturn (magnitude 0.69), and Venus (magnitude -4.65). Image is a 0.8 second exposure at f/4, ISO 200, 18mm focal length. Nikon D7200 DSLR camera.
