Details:
The two inner planets Mercury and Venus are currently very well visible in the evening sky. Mercury shines with -1.3 mag. The height was only 4.5° above the horizon. I had to use binoculars to find Mercury. He hid in the haze. Both planets will meet even closer in the next few days. The distance on the picture was 2.5°
Details: Canon EOS 6D, Pentacon 4/200 (F5.6), ISO 200, 1/8s
