A Celestial Triangle Meets A Star Cluster

Venus (lowest), Jupiter (middle), and the crescent Moon forming a celestial triangle at dawn. Photographed from Uludag National Park near Bursa in Turkey, the high altitude view point, at elevation of 1734 m, provided good transparency to also record the M44 star cluster (known as the Beehive), next to Jupiter.
