Venus (L) and Jupiter (R) Ending Their Conjunction

Venus and Jupiter are seen slowly parting company in beautiful twilight. We had mediocre seeing conditions June 30, the peak night of the recent planetary conjunction, and solid overcast the following night. So with July 2nd’s clear skies, I headed out for an effort at getting a landscape photo featuring the planets. It worked out well.
