Great photo, and funny comments at the Imgur site.

That photo was taken a few days ago, and now Venus has passed Jupiter and appears above it in the evening sky.

Not only that: Mars is in the eastern sky in the evening hours. Yes. We can see three planets at once. Saturn comes out around midnight or later.

I would love to use my telescope, but there have been too many cloudy nights in my neck of the woods.
