Astrophoto: Mercury, Venus and Saturn

David McCormack took this picture of Venus, Mercury and Saturn during their recent conjunction from Sunbury, Australia.

Do you have photos you’d like to share? Post them to the Universe Today astrophotography forum or email them to me directly, and I might feature one in Universe Today.
