Whenever I go away on a trip, I always pack the camera gear needed to take images of the night sky, that way I’m always prepared if something happens!
We are at the moment on a caravan road trip travelling down on the New England Highway in country NSW, and I was hoping that this would give me a great opportunity to see some beautiful clear dark skies,
and tonight proved me right.
When I looked out into the western sky, there up in the sky was a very young crescent Moon low on the horizon and the very elusive planet Mercury with Saturn making a perfect triangle; it was just so pretty :-)
The image was taken on the 20th November with a Canon 70D camera and a Tamron 18-400 lens set at 50mm, the exposure was 4 seconds and ISO800.
