Nice captures.......Whens it Mars' turn ? 😀

 

What sort of time are they 'up' Graham to see visually ?? (the big 3, Mars, Jupiter & Saturn)

I'm guessing morning twilight is the spoiler here....?

 

I've not seen them yet this year, and had a quick look just before 04:00hrs, but saw nothing.

Possibly from my location they were behind tree's....

Awesome, said it before but Saturn is the one object that temps me back to visual observing. I well remember the first time I saw it through a telescope as a kid - it's got a lot to answer for!

Mars is there as well Rob.

About the same distance behind Saturn as Saturn is behind Jupiter.

Time is around 4 am and yes it is getting towards daylight and sunrise.

Always good to see Saturn, unfortunately it isn't viewable for me at the moment due to trees.
