May 13 - 4 planets, and some interloper stars from Glenhaven

At 05:00 a cloud bank was covering everything except Mars. By 5:45 the cloud had moved, but it was getting a bit bright.

Edit: I think the stars near the planets and visible in the earliest shot are Omicron Psc (HIP 8198) and Xi1 Cet (HIP 10324).

Still got them though Andrew, but know what you mean with that low lying cloud .... very nice images. :thumbsup:

at least you have a memory of them, cloud has been a real issue this year.

Thanks Liz and David. When I said a few stars, I hadn't identified Callisto and Io (the bump on Jupiter at around 5 o'clock). I've marked 21 stars from the SAO catalog on this (http://cid-628ad00a20e17fe3.photos.live.com/self.aspx/Astro/DSC03408.jpeg) image. It's too big to post here.
