The planet Mercury and Venus

The first and second planets from the sun. Discovered by the ancients.

Images taken with TEC-140 Telescope mounted on Losmandy G11 mount. Camera used was a Canon EOS20D used at Prime Focus. This was part of the Mercury, Venus, and Saturn conjunction.

Single 1/25th second exposures cropped, aligned and stacked in ImagesPlus 2.5 Beta 2. I tried tto get these with the Powermate but they went behind a tree before I got focused and centered. Need to redo at some point.
