Aligning of the Stars (I mean planets)

Here is a quick shot from last week in the backyard. It isn't a very technically proficient photo but It needed to be taken. It was a nice alignment of The moon (highest and brightest), Jupiter (down and to the right of the moon), and Venus ("closest" bright object to the shed). Also making guest appearances were the Pleiades (slightly up and to the right of the moon) and Orion (far left of the image). Click on the image and see the annotated positions of all on the Flickr page.
