Over the years I have captured the Moon and Venus together on many occasions. But today’s photo from early the morning of November 9th may be the closest I have ever seen the two objects in the sky.

Venus and Moon Getting Closer

November 8, 2021

This was not a formal astrophotography session, just good luck of clear skies and being outside before 6 a.m. When I saw the wonderful pair, I ran back inside to get my iPhone, hoping I would be able to keep a steady enough grip for a decent picture.

Equipment Used:

  • iPhone 14 Pro (hand held)
  • NightCap app on iPhone
  • f/1.8
  • 1/30 sec exposure
  • ISO 1250
  • Focal length: 7mm
  • Touchups in PaintShop Pro and AfterShot Pro

Thank you for taking the time to read my article.

I am the founder and creative director of Computer Looking Up. I have been fascinated by space since childhood. My interest in technology also runs deep, rooted in fond memories of the CRT-anchored desktops my father tinkered with in the early 1980s. Professionally, I have spent over 30 years immersed in the technology sector, serving in capacities ranging from programming and IT to project management. Outside of work, my passions lie in astrophotography, astronomy, and philosophy. Through ComputerLookingUp.com, I explore these interests and aim to build a community where we can share insights—I hope you will join the conversation.
