This is the much publicized "planet parade" or "planet alignment" of April 2022, with four planets almost equally spaced this day (April 16) across the morning sky. But from my latitude of 51° N the dawn sky was getting very bright by the time the lowest planet, Jupiter, rose. Only Venus was visible to the eye, but the camera picked up the other three. Even so I had to emphasize their appearance with a soft glow around each planet to make them stand out. This is a single 1/5-second exposure with the Canon Ra at ISO 100 and Canon RF 28-70mm lens at f/4 and 43mm focal length. Taken from home in southern Alberta.
The rising waning crescent Moon west of the trio of dawn planets: Venus (brightest), Mars (to the right) and Saturn (to the lower left) clustered together low in the southeast on March 27, 2022. They were all grouped in Capricornus at this time. This was from home in Alberta at my latitude of 51° N. The Moon was unusually low as it was near its maximum of 5° below the ecliptic at this time. By coincidence, the band of darker clouds more or less marks the line of the ecliptic. This is a single shot with the RF70-200mm lens at 80mm and f/4 and the Canon EOS Ra at ISO 400 for 3.2 seconds. This version has labels and lines.
