Re: [APML] The Grand Alignment- one *last* image

Eddie, thanks, yes I wanted Mercury but it wasn't meant to be that nite.  I 
feel lucky that I got the shots I did, considering the lousy weather here as 
of late.  You pic is good too, did Phillip inspire this one?  I'm having a 
hard time seeing all the planets though.  If I have time tonite I'll look at 
my Skymap Pro software and see where they all were for your location.  Take 
care and keep shooting!

Stan
