I was very much looking forward to seeing the conjunction of Jupiter and venus last evening , however the thunderstorms came along with almost 99% cloud cover around sunset. I was pleased and surprised to catch a small opening in the clouds at the right place and time

Excellent shot Steve. I looked last night and couldn't see Jupiter just Venus.
But I love your work.

Nice shot even if it was by chance.
It's sometimes better to be lucky than good.
Well done.
