Evening Planets

Hi All

Took the opportunity last evening to add to the variety on offer here. The smoke haze had thinned a little and added to the colour of the sunset with the planets Mercury , Venus & Jupiter plus the crescent moon all situated near Scorpius. Must have gotten the focus right as well, when zooming in, the optical double Mu Scorpius has been cleanly resolved.
Location looking across Lake Illawarra
Canon 550D, 18 - 55 Lens @ 18mm, iso 800, exp 1/4 sec.

Thanks for looking.
