Moon & Saturn.

Unread post by menardre »

I took this photo of moon & Saturn conjunction about a month ago with my Nikon D7100. I was pleased to see that I could see the rings. Saturn is upper left hand corner. I just down sized the photo to fit.

Jerry, I believe you should directing the praise to Roger as he posted the image, not me.
