Earlier Image of the Moon, Mars, Venus Conjunction

I was researching places to catch this event, and +Lori Hibbett suggested "How about Mount Whitney?"
I identified three roads where we could catch the moon setting behind Mount Whitney at three different times, and this first location ended up being the best.

Here's my time-lapse video of the moon and planets setting:

Last Friday at Sunset there was a conjunction of Mars, Venus and the Crescent moon. I opted to run down to Lone Pine and capture the moment over Mt. Whitney, the highest point in the lower 48 states of the USA. It was chilly but beautiful!
