Details:
These photos, taken with a Canon SX60 HS camera from 20:58 to 21:09 UT, show the conjunction of Venus, Jupiter, Mercury and the Star Regulus. A mean angular distance of only 15 degrees separated them from the Sun so that they were immersed in the bright colors of the evening twilight. Venus is on the left, while Regulus, Jupiter and Mercury can be seen on the right (from highest to lowest). Some cacti by the beach are seen in the foreground.
