ATTENDANCE: Myself
EQUIPMENT: Tripod, 28-80mm lens, Canon Rebel DSLR Camera.
REPORT: This observer was surprised on this morning to see a nice close Venus-Saturn conjunction. It was the first time Ive observed Saturn since it went behind the Sun this summer. After checking on my star chart, it was determined that Mercury might also be visible if a good view of the eastern horizon could be had. After driving down to the beach(Bay of Fundy), a very faint Mercury could be seen. Mercury can be seen in two of these images.
