The Moon Near Jupiter, November 2012

The moon rises with Jupiter nearby, relatively speaking, November 2012. (Photo by Daniel Binkard)

With the last vestiges of sunset lighting the clouds, the moon shows through. My intent was to show a clean view of the moon, clouds and planet. This is a composite of two photos, one to show detail in the moon and one to show detail in the clouds. Editing includes hue and tone adjustments to show the detail in the clouds and moon.
