Mars, Saturn and Moon - comparing angular size

Hi guys,

Did a quick composition on Mars, Saturn and the 11 days old Moon (all with the same angular size), during a rare clear night on the 9th June 2014

It's kinda fun comparing their sizes vs distances from Earth.

Telescope: Skywatcher 120ED, F=1800mm
Camera: IMG132e
Autostakkert, PixInsight
