The Moon and Venus

 During twilight on Saturday evening (18 April) the 1.7-day crescent moon passed within 5.5 deg of the planet Venus.  The conjunction was photographed with a Sony A7iii camera and Olympus OM 135mm f/2.8 lens, and an Olympus E-M1iii camera and 75mm f/1.8 lens.  Both cameras were hand held.

 

E-M1iii + 75mm f/1.8

About 1/2-hour later:
