This is Mars (at right) near the orange giant star Mebsuta,aka Epsilon Geminorum,on April 12,2023. Mars was 50 arc minutes from the star this night. It was closer the following two nights,about 20 and 16 arc minutes from the star. Mars was magnitude +1.1 while Mebsuta is +3.

On August 24,2023 the waxing gibbous Moon occulted the bright star Antares in Scorpius. This is the scene about 30 minutes after the star reappeared from behind the moving Moon,and so here is a close conjunction. I missed capturing the actual occultation reappearance,though that would have been in a much brighter sky. And the Moon was low in my sky and amid the trees,here purposefully included to capture the scene low in the south,as Antares always is in late summer from my latitude of 51° N. .

The waning gibbous Moon approaches the star Aldebaran at an occultation on the morning of September 12, 2017. This is a multiple exposure composite of the ingress phase that occurred before sunrise, with the Moon from the final exposure and the star from exposures taken at 4-minute intervals prior to that last exposure. For the actual ingress I switched to HD movie to shoot a video of the event.
