Details:
Hello, I am sending you a few photos from yesterday's conjunction of the Moon and the planet Mercury at the open star cluster M45 Pleiades. All day, hilly clouds formed, which made it impossible to observe the sun, so at least in the evening it made up for it with a gap in the place where the Moon and Mercury were. Unfortunately, the Pleiades were not seen through the clouds. Photographed on the way home from the mother-in-law so just quickly stop to pull out the tripod, set the camera and click until I go behind the clouds again 😃 the whole thing took about 5 minutes.
Canon EOS 550D + Sigma 18-300mm 1x6sec ISO 3200 f / 6.3
