Taken last night and resized to their relative apparent sizes are Jupiter, Venus, Mars and Saturn. Canon EOS 600D, 5x Powermate (+ 2x Barlow for Mars), SkyWatcher 12" Goto Dobsonian telescope, manually tracked.

Also, a capture-sized Mars.

Great spread, Tom.

Impressed you can get anything on Jupiter at this late stage. Mars still a standout, even on the way out.
