Neptune! My goal was to photograph the moon + Venus conjunction, with overexposing the moon to pickup the earthshine. Upon closer inspection, I could easily see Phi Aquarii (the star that is being mis-identified as Neptune), and then... Neptune! Not sure if this will show up on a web image, but thought I'd share with you anyway. I love Earth Sky and read everything you all put out. Thanks for keeping us backyard astronomers engaged! :-)
