- Moon, Jupiter and Pleiades
Yesterday evening there was a nice encounter of Moon and Jupiter in the Taurus constellation; the image shows Moon, Jupiter with two moons, Europa on the left and Ganymede on the right, and Pleiades on top right.
Shot taken at 18 Feb 2013 18:14 UTC, from Melegnano, Italy (coordinates 45.348300N, 9.304647E): the sky was clear but, because of air and light pollution, faint stars and nebulosity can't be seen.
The result is a combination of two pictures; both pictures taken with a normal tripod with the following camera data:
