Jupiter, the celestial Street Light !

Jupiter , the biggest planet orbiting the Sun , can be seen by the naked eye in the south-western sky at times , weather permitting ! But to capture it by the camera proved elusive , what with the glare emitted by the city lights and street lights !

 

Mr.Ezhil Ramalingam, our ' Flickr ' friend , came with an answer ! With his guidance , the tiny flicker of Jupiter has been captured along with the street lights on the terrace of my home ! The mammoth planet looks like another street light in the celestial path !!

 

Exposure : 60 seconds !
