Spring Triangle with Saturn

Bright stars that make up the Triangle….
Left side is Arcturus in Bootes,
Very Top is Denebola in Leo,
Spica in Virgo is at the bottom.
But there is something amiss with the Triangle, an extra bright star just above Spica; it’s the planet Saturn!
This is a single 25 second exposure & represents what the eye would see from a typical 4th Mag. Suburban location.
