Moon & Jupiter

[smr]

Our Moon above Jupiter tonight. The first photo... that white dot at the bottom is Jupiter. The Moon's diameter is 3,475km. Jupiter's diameter is 140,000km. Just shows how far away Jupiter is! Second shot of the Moon on it's own.

I spent quite a whlle last night standing in the garden looking at this, and thinking I ought to photograph it, but I didn't, and I don't know why. Now I wish I had. Well done.

Thanks Janny.
