Among the best and the brightest

This is the fastest turnaround I've had on a single photo in quite a while. I left home early this morning to capture this at Lost Lake. Recent winds mean there were a lot of trees down in that area, which made the drive up (and even the walk in) take a little longer than normal.

 

Pictured are the planets Jupiter, Mars, and Venus (from top to bottom, over Mt Hood). The star just below Venus (the brightest object in this photo) is Spica.

 

I'm nearly set to announce the dates for my fourth season of landscape astrophotography workshops. If you like what you see here and would like to learn some of my techniques, please visit my website for more information.
