Planet conjunctions 21/4

Wow, this is tricky as so light out there with Moon and incoming Dawn.

Venus was blazing away, but other planets hard to pick as getting light on the eastern horizon. Didnt spot Jupiter which was probably hidden in the low lying cloud.

Probably another week will be better with Mercury, Mars and Jupiter a little higher, and Moon waning.

Was going to check for Comet C/2011 C1 McNaught but sky too light.

Still .... a beautiful morning.
