Re: Submission Gallery: Moon-Jupiter-Venus Conjunction
While all the images in this submission gallery are individually pleasing, what I really like here is the gallery itself... the sense of a single astronomical event witnessed (near) simultaneously all over the world, with various geologic or cultural elements in the foreground. A gallery like this really emphasizes that we all live on one world, in the same way pictures of Earth from space does.

Re: Submission Gallery: Moon-Jupiter-Venus Conjunction
Four Nights
This is the conjunction captured over four nights, at about the same time (24 Feb - 27 Feb, ~18:50 MST), by my video allsky meteor camera. You can see the nightly eastward movement of the Moon, and also the slight closing of Jupiter and Venus.

Jupiter, Venus and the Crescent Moon
Copyright: Joe Stieber, Web Page: http://sjastro.org/
Saturday evening, 25-February-2012, at 6:23 pm EST from my backyard in Maple Shade, NJ, USA. I had to edure fast-moving broken clouds, waiting for all three objects to appear simultaneously. Jupiter is at the upper-left apex of the slender triangle they formed while Venus below right of Jupiter, next to the moon. Canon 40D digital SLR camera with a Sigma 18-50 mm f/2.8 zoom lens set to 18 mm focal length. Exposed 1/6 second (handheld) at f/2.8, ISO 800 Sunday evening, 26-February-2012 at 6:24 pm EST from Carranza Field in Wharton State Forest, NJ, USA. The evening was quite clear, so for something different, here's a view of just the objects themselves. Since the previous evening, the moon has moved about 12 degrees eastward and is now near Jupiter. Canon 40D digital SLR camera (on a tripod) with a Sigma 18-50 mm f/2.8 zoom lens set to 50 mm focal length (then cropped a little vertically). Exposed 1/2 second at f/2.8, ISO 400

Just a quick picture I snapped on my way home. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to make it anywhere darker, so I took a seat on the bench and took a couple shots of me staring up.

The picture from Turin also has Mercury in it - just to the left and above the tower at the bottom.
