We had to travel around 25 miles to get a good view of the west, but it was worth it. Jupiter and Venus were visible first, and finally Mercury appeared. A great show in the sky.

Nice shot David. I am hampered by sky views blocked by power lines and structures. Must go quite a way as well to find a good spot to shoot from. But it is worth the effort.
