Image Details:

If you ever wanted to located Uranus, now is the time, thanks to the proximity of Venus. In this image the planets are less than 10° apart. By Mar 4 they will fit in the same binocular field of view. Conjunction will be Mar 8-9.
The bright rays at the top of the image are Lunar diffraction spikes from my star point filter. I like to embellish the beauty of nature.
