Long Exposure

Here is my attempt at a photo of the Great Conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn. I tried going to both Arapaho Bend and Running Deer Natural Areas for photos but half of town was already there. So I ended up taking this last night at about 5:54:03 pm on County Road 90 between County Roads 13 and 15 in Weld County. Exposure data 35mm f4.0 @ 4 seconds, with a tripod. My first long exposure with the Fujifilm X-T3.

Retired. Having fun with photography. Journal daily. Meditate daily. Learning haiku/poetry. Have a love for fountain pens.

    That works well enough, Monte! We looked at the planets from our front porch last night with binoculars. It’s interesting but to me seemed a little under-whelming given all the hype. But I guess everyone needs something to get excited about!

    That actually looks like a pretty nice viewpoint for sunset, at a different time and with more clouds.

    This is a beautiful image. Good to try new things. I also have not tried a long exposure shot in ages. Maybe next year. Merry Christmas, Monte.
