Equipment Details:

Canon 5Ds and a Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM mounted on an iOptron SkyTracker Pro

Post-processing Details:

Edited in Affinity Photo. I made adjustments to clarity, brightness, contrast, black point, and saturation before assembling the composite photo.

Image Details:

While the Moon and Venus were a spectacular attention grabbing pairing, Uranus was not to be left out. Uranus formed a lovely triangle with HIP 9533 and HIP 9295, while HIP 9517 acted as a centroid. As clouds moved in, Uranus and it's accompanying stars faded from view while the much brighter Moon and Venus became quite fuzzy.
