Details:
This is the line-up of planets across the southwestern sky on December 5, 2021, consisting of (L to R): Jupiter, Saturn and Venus (brightest), with Jupiter and Saturn in Capricornus, with its stars all visible here though dim in the twilight. The three planets are nicely equally spaced here. Such an array makes the ecliptic line visible.
This is a blend of 3 exposures: 20s, 13s, and 8s to retain details and colours in the brightest part of the twilight sky at right, all at f/5.6 and ISO 400 with the Canon RF 28-70mm lens at 31mm and Canon EOS Ra. Taken in "blue hour."
Supplied in two versions: With and without lines and labels to mark the ecliptic and constellation pattern.
