Equipment Details:

Canon EOS 6D with Tamron SP 24-70mm F2.8 Lens

Post-processing Details:

Because there are too many clouds, I processed the photos in black and white, leaving only the star points, and then combined with the photos taken on the first day (April 22) to combine the landscape and the cross pattern formed by Venus and Jupiter.

Image Details:

On May 1, Venus conjunct Jupiter in the eastern sky early in the morning. As they approach and move away, Venus will move to the upper left (slightly west to the north), while Jupiter will move to the upper right (slightly southerly to the west), and their combined trajectory will form a cross-like pattern (cross in Chinese). From April 22 to May 10, as long as Venus and Jupiter can be seen in the early morning, I will shoot even if there are thin clouds. But the weather in Taipei was so bad that I only captured Venus and Jupiter for 7 days. This photo is a post-production combination of these actual shots of Venus and Jupiter. Because there are too many clouds, I processed the photos in black and white, leaving only the star points, and then combined with the photos taken on the first day (April 22) to combine the landscape and the cross pattern formed by Venus and Jupiter.
