Exclamation 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).

http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap080310.html

Absolutely incredible image, Glen. Congratulations!

Now that's the type of shot I wanted to get!

Just beautiful, Glen! Well done.

Good to see a DSO type guy finding some use for the moon.

A lovely shot

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

Excellent photo Glen.
Good to see someone up at that time to take the photo.
I hope the radio data was good also.
