Details:
Single shot of the Moon - Spica conjunction above the Basilica of Santa Croce in Gerusalemme in Rome.
I took the shot at 7:25pm UT when the Sun was still about 3 degrees above the horizon so the sky was very deep blue. With the naked eye the star was not yet visible, but with the Nikon's zoom it was clearly visible, even when the Sun still illuminated the angel statue that seems to be looking at the conjunction.
In the second version I prefered to use a more opaque shade by attenuating the colours.
ISO400 1/400s
