From the workshop I taught this beautiful Saturday...morning's star.
Mark,
An excellent image. From the EXIF data, I see that the image was created on 7/13/2013 possibly near your hometown, Rehweiler, Germany (49 50 54 N, 7 26 29 E) with a 35 mm equivalent focal length of 400 mm. Entering these data into Skymap Pro I get the folowing scene. I would think the celestial body is the sun--it is much too large to be a planet. In the USA
morning star usually refers to Venus. Maybe, I'm a bit dense, but the image initially caused some confusion to me.
I looked at your
website and saw some outstanding work and would recommend it to others.
Regards,
Bill
