Mars, Jupiter, Mercury, Luna (2-22-2009)

This was the view this morning to the east, from a tall hill in The Woodlands, TX:

Ah, you had clear skies! We had a thin layer of clouds which negated my ability to see this. Great photo!

Thanks, Phil. We had the thin layer, but just off to the east. There are benefits from being many miles away from water.

I had to show this to Caitlin and Jacob. They were both very impressed. Great job.

Val,
Where did you shoot this image from? What tall hill in the Woodlands? The only "tall" hill I know of there is the Anadarko Tower. It's a great shot! Looks like a fog layer at the bottom.

Thanks, Drako. Terramont Park, on the top of the highest hill near the back of the park. Actually, it's a great place for a star party some night. Aside from a few small trees, one can almost see the whole sky.
