Venus and Mercury

Hi all.

Who spotted that lovely pairing to-night low in the west after sunset.

I don't think I,ve seen a better apparition of these two planets.

Beautiful.

Mick.

I got the whole office out having a look last night.

I saw some very nice pics of the two. Unfortunately I have been clouded out, but Sunday night could be decent.

They make a lovely couple. Mercury trotting next to fair Venus like her little brown dog...Sweet.

Edit/ No!....It's Venus and Zoony....

Yeah had a beautiful sky the night before last after sunset - and Mars above with Jupiter following later. The first 5 planets naked eye - pretty cool really. Catching Mercury is always a little bit special...
