[Chaos-l] moon, jupiter, venus together at sunset tonight

[Steve Christensen]

I went out to the street a block away here in Northwest Durham where I 
could see the Moon and Jupiter (Venus had already set) and took a couple 
of photos.

I did not expect to get Callisto, Ganymede, and Europa, but I saw 
something in the larger photo and so enlarged it in Photoshop.   IO was 
too close for my camera to see.

I used my Canon 60D with a Camranger setup that talks via wifi to my 
iPad.   I can select all of the camera settings and focus and then view 
the results right on the iPad.  Very handy.
