Early morning conjunction of Venus, Jupiter, and the Moon

I hope you all had a chance to enjoy the pre dawn conjunction of the Moon, Jupiter and Venus. I made a couple of pictures this morning (7-15-12) with my Cannon 60Da and a Carl Zeiss 50mm lens at f3.5 and ISO 400. The three met under a thin veil of clouds just before dawn, and just before a thick blanket of fog rolled in. My exposure was 9 seconds with my camera on a tripod.
