Now *that's* a poster shot!
Incredible APOD from the other day, of the Moon/Venus/Mercury conjunction - from none other than our own Glen Cozens (glenc) and Graeme White (his PHD Supervisor).

Absolutely incredible image, Glen. Congratulations!
Now that's the type of shot I wanted to get!
Just beautiful, Glen! Well done.

A lovely shot

Nice shooting Glen, with that foreground of radio dishes really sets it off, worthy of the pool room for sure.
