Saturn

A few days ago we saw Saturn near the moon shortly after moonrise. Since then it’s moved a little ways from the moon. Or more precisely the moon has moved a ways relative to Saturn, since it is moving faster in relation to the earth’s rotation). In any case, I was able to get a pretty good shot of it with my long lens zoomed out to 600mm. This was taken at ISO 3200 at f/7.1 for 1/100 second. It isn’t going to win any awards for photos of planets but it’s at least good enough that you can be sure which planet it is.
