Skies cleared in time to catch Venus (brightest) and Saturn (right above her) setting over and reflected in Lake Ashby near Warrenton, Virgina, in the evening twilight last night. The bright star Deneb Algedi is also easily visible to the left of Saturn.

This is an 8-sec exposure at f/5 and ISO-400.
