Details:
15 hours after the closest conjunction of Jupiter and Venus. The elongation is about 40 arcminutes.
The forecast weather in this morning was cloudy, but I tried to take interval photos and I got the conjunction for only a few minutes from a break in the clouds.
Nikon COOLPIX P510 digital camera; ISO 400, F3.7, 4s exposure, f=55mm (trimmed around the planets).
