Line-Up at Last (01-06-11)
After days of the weather tormenting me (clear night skies and cloudy mornings), such that I missed all of the crescent Moon in the planetary line-up, I finally got a clear morning yesterday.
Shaky image of Jupiter and Venus taken with my mobile phone held against a Stobie pole. I have GOT to find a better way to stabilise my phone for astronomical images. Mars is too faint to be seen and Mercury is hidden behind the houses.
My real camera? It's in the mail from Melbourne (long story)
