First Attempt at Photoastronomy

As mentioned previously, the planets are positioned in such a manner that it is possible to see all 5 visible planets in one night (if you can manage to be awake at 6 pm and am). I don't have a telescope, so I had to make due with my camera by itself. The images are not spectacular, but they kinda get the image across. Here is a fun site that I just discovered http://www.nakedeyeplanets.com/


Jupiter between Aries and Pisces


Mars at Leo with Regulus


Moon and Mercury at Scorpius
