I went out just after sunset tonight to do a class assignment for Stan's Night Sky Photography class. I had done some planning on the computer using a planetarium program where I can change the day and time to see where the Moon and Venus will be at a particular time. Today was a bit frustrating because the two of them were 18 degrees apart. I did get them both in this photograph, fortunately. Tomorrow night they will be only 5 degrees apart, but the forecast is for thin clouds. I will try again and see if the weather allows a chance to photograph. I had composed this photograph, and while I was shooting over about 15 minutes of time, waiting for the sky to get darker, a couple walked through the photograph, and one sat on the bench and the other person stood up next to them! PERFECT! I could not have asked for a more perfect arrangement.

You nailed it! You captured Venus, a crescent moon and a couple enjoying sunset by the harbor. Life is good!
I had the same view out of my living room window last night but could not capture it with my iPhone. So I just enjoyed the view :-) betsey
