๐ท This is the planetary alignment everyone should be talking about.
Between June 16โ18, the Moon, Venus, Jupiter and Mercury will appear together low above the western horizon shortly after sunset.
And the best part?
You don't need a telescope or special equipment!

Find a location with a clear western horizon and an interesting foreground. A lighthouse, mountain, castle or city skyline can turn this conjunction into something special.

Missed ManhattanHenge official dates?
If clouds ruined your plans during past 29th, don't worry...
Here's a little secret:
The alignment doesn't disappear after May!
In fact, there are several great opportunities throughout June if you know where to stand and when to shoot!
