Planet Collision?????

Hi @Nilz , I been watching them for a few weeks on my way to bed.
I was lucky to have a clear night when Venus and Jupiter and the moon were all near, wonderful sight!

Same, just watched both dip below the horizon. (I'm surrounded by hills).
I'll check the pics tomorrow.

Sorry @Ghost, I faffed about with these. Not great and they did look closer at the time.
I had to crop these to get them small enough to upload.
:confusion:

Thanks @Nilz and @Ghost, it was indeed quite enjoyable watching, (except for the hill that spoiled the main event).
Astro photography is not an easy thing to get good results from and I take my hat off to those who do manage and produce good shots.
