Moon, Mercury & Venus Conjunction (Jan 21, 2015)

The thin waxing crescent Moon, with Mercury (below) and Venus (to the left of the Moon). Earthshine is visible on the crescent Moon. The trio is in the evening twilight sky over the town of Silver City, New Mexico, taken January 21, 2015.

This is a stack of 3 exposures stacked as an HDR composite for a greater dynamic range. I used the Canon 60Da and 50mm lens.
