    Thanks, yep its taken from Killiney Hill , or Killaney hill as the website says!

    I went up to try and get a glimpse of NEAT, but didnt manage it, light pollution didnt help, will try from wicklow tomorow if its clear. It was nice to be able to get that shot with Saturn-Mars-Venus equidastant from each other.

    There are still only a handful of shots sent in to that site each day, so do send in something. As you can see from my effort a simple snapshot (10 seconds) can produce a reasonable nice pic.

    Cheers,
