This has been a good night for imaging four planets and the Moon at a single 
image scale of 0.22 arcseconds per pixel.  I left the same Barlow in the 
focuser for all five images in this montage.  Even in unsteady seeing low in 
the sky, the blue filter brought out some cloud detail on Venus.  Mars is 
nearing opposition, and is still only a diminutive 14".
