Jupiter and Saturn nearing their Dec 21, 2020 Great Conjunction, with this image taken December 3, 2020 from the Elbow Falls area on the Elbow River in the Kananaskis Country southwest of Calgary. This is a blend of 4 untracked images for the dark ground, stacked to smooth noise, for 30 seconds each, and one untracked image for the bright sky for 15 seconds to preserve colours and highlights, all with the 24mm Sigma lens and Canon EOS Ra at ISO 200. A dodge and burn layer created by Lumenzia applied. The location was planned with The Photographer’s Ephemeris and TPE 3D apps, to ensure the planets would be visible between the mountain peaks from this site.
