Description:

With the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction rapidly approaching the closest apparent separation, the moon was near on the 16th of December 2020. I composed this photo with a saguaro cactus in the foreground and the moon and planets over the left arm of the saguaro. If you pixel peep Jupiter, you will see Callisto [left] and Ganymede [right].
