About	Taken at about 7:35 PM on January 24, 2004 from my NYC rooftop. I had just acquired the Apotessar and spent some time testing it earlier in the day. When I saw how close the moon and Venus were in the sky to each other, I waited until they were just above the city skyline and lucked out that they past this water tower on their trip to the horizon. For this shot I also had a soft weight resting on the lens right above the tripod mount to dampen the vibration of the shutter and that potentially induced by wind. With the length of the exposure, the moon and Venus trailed at this focal length
