I took this picture while waiting for clouds to clear while trying to get the Moon, Venus, and Mercury together (see next post). The Moon was about two and a half days old.

13" f/4.5 reflector, Nikon Coolpix 800 mounted to a 14mm Televue Radian eyepiece. Three images stitched together using Panorama Maker, further processed using Paint Shop Pro.

Here's my best shot of the conjunction. Alas, Mercury is hidden in the clouds somewhere. I guess two out of three ain't bad.
