Photo details: Fuji Finepix S2, ISO 400, 35 mm Nikkor lens at f5.6, 8 seconds.
The pair of heavenly bodies were barely 1o apart, combining in brilliance for an unforgettable display. In Wallsend, Australia, David Hough saw them in broad daylight while photographer P-M Heden found that they rivaled the streetlights of Vallentuna, Sweden. "It was marvelous," he says. Now the Moon is moving away from Venus en route to another close encounter--with Saturn on May 22nd. Stay tuned!
