Jupiter and Venus Conjunction – 2nd March 2023

Every now and again the positions of the planets in the night sky appear to align themselves, but in reality it is just their orbits in the ecliptic plane around the sun. And this time we were treated with two of the brightest planets, Jupiter and Venus.

I was very pleased with how this photo turned out. The planets were both low in the western sky along, Jupiter top left with it’s moons out to the right hand side. Venus shining brightly in the lower left.
