Cloudy and very windy here in Jadwin Missouri tonight. But as luck would have it a few breaks in the clouds allowed me to photograph this conjunction of Jupiter and our Moon. Tonight I submit a black and white image with a slightly overexposed Moon that shows some Earth Shine, and if you look closely some of the Jovian moons!

Cannon 60Da camera with a Baader Vario Finder as a lens, f4.1 at ISO 800, photograph made on 04/14/2013 at 20:40:34 local time. camera on tripod method.
