Details:
The sky veiled by thin cirrus and cirrostratus clouds, Venus bright in the sky after sunset. I decided to take some shots of a halo around Venus and I realized in front of the computer that this halo on a photo appeared hexagonal, with a faint vertical reflection above and below, as can be seen from the narrow images on the horizontal sides. I don't think it depends on the shake, the stars are slightly elongated due to the exposure of 4 seconds with the 300 mm lens. on a fixed tripod. Never seen before, incredible ...
Canon 70d, lens zoom Canon 70/300 mm., f/5.6, 1000 ISO.
