[AZ-Observing] Photos in December 2008 "Astronomy" Magazine

My photo of the five bright planets is on page VII of the "Sky Guide 2009" 
insert.  Once again, the "Astronomy" photo editors got carried with the 
cropping -- they came very close to cutting off Jupiter!  And the photo is 
printed so small, you can't really see Mercury.  Here's the full-frame photo on 
my web site, with the planets labeled:

On page 85 there's a photo of spiral galaxy NGC 5371 by Adam Block.  Here's the 
image on the web:

Also on page 85 there's a photo of globular cluster NGC 6712 and planetary 
nebula IC 1295 by Chris Schur.  Here's the photo on Chris' web site:
