Moon, Jupiter, and Venus conjunction

I saw this story a couple of nights ago on Yahoo, and have gone outside the last two nights to enjoy this rare conjuction of three of the brightest objects in the nighttime sky very near each other. See below for one photo (from AP), or link here for another shot from Flickr. The Flickr photo (taken by someone in Colorado) is actually much closer to the geometry / arrangement that I saw from my backyard than the photo pasted in below.
