Moon and Venus from San Francisco December 28, 2019 20191228-173553 cw50 C4VB
I made this and the following photo of the Moon and Venus 12 seconds apart from the front stairs of our San Francisco home. This is the first time I can remember successfully photographing Venus and the moon and I was delighted to get this photo opportunity on my December 28 birthday,
As usual when photographing the moon, I made this first shot holding my Canon Powershot SX50 horizontally and cropped the image vertically during editing. Since Venus over the moon did not fit well in a horizontal frame, I made the second shot in the next slide holding my camera vertically.
I feel very lucky to have made these image captures of the Moon where Venus can actually be seen.
