Moon & red Mars Conjunction

Moon & red Mars Conjunction

A lovely conjunction of the Moon with Mars Conjunction on July 5, 2014 With only a couple tenths of a degree of separation between them. I had a great time working on my Astronomical League Lunar Program with my new ES 20mm and Denver observing chair. My firm resolution not to take any images dissolved into a desire to capture the beauty of red Mars so close to the Moon. Questar 3.5 with Sony NEX-5N at prime focus ISO 800 1/60 second exposure.
