I asked for Mod approval before posting this here. :wink:

I missed the 3 where they were in line but took this shot at 20h20 SA time - it was an awesome sight :clap:

This is my best effort - shooting from the hip and too lazy to get the tripod out :redface:

My pic does not do the sighting justice at all - the planets were so bright, it was magical!
