Just got home in time to see this wonderful display as the clouds kindly disapeared for me. Then Margaret made tea while I was able to take the shots.
As well as the expected planets, little Mercury put in an appearance just to complete the picture, faint but there, down low and just right of the tripod winder.
Now details: Olympus 410 compact digital tripod mounted. The moon and Saturn (very faint to left) were taken through 10X50 binos at 3X tele on the camera hand held.
