Moon-Jupiter-Saturn Conjunction

We show a series of artistic compositions related to the conjunction between The Moon, Saturn and Jupiter during the month of December 2020, taken either from Oviedo or Vitoria-Gasteiz. The pictures are the best we could get given our local and individual circumstances, and we managed to register and enjoy the event.
