A few more Conjunction shots from Portugal was created by Frank Ryan
Hope ye aren't getting sick of these! :D
I had some free time this weekend to work on some of the
other shots I took on holidays which I said I'd post up for ye to
have a look at.
(I have more but even I am getting cheezed off with looking at them!)
Anyway, here they are...






Taken at around 9:30 in the evening this shot shows The Moon & Venus
in conjunction over a beach.











Taken the previous evening at 10pm. This shows (obviously enough!) a
brightly colored boat moored at Alvor fishing harbour
again with The Moon and Venus shining through.
(The color on screen looks a bit saturated but I printed this and
it looks well balanced..oh well..)








Then the following morning at 5 AM after photographing an ISS pass,
I took a starscape shot of the bay which shows Jupiter, most of Scorpius and a nice bit of the Milky Way.





again, the bigger versions of these are up on flickr.

Very nice images Frank. The first and third picture look like they were taken from another planet. Well done!

WOW! savage images! :o

And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time. . . .
