A couple of people have expressed interest in seeing this. So here is a vertical shot taken a few minutes before "Dawn Of The Planets II"


This was taken to include the planet Jupiter in the top left corner. I don't think it is as good as number two, as to get Jupiter in frame I lost some of the horizon and some of the orangle glow of the coming dawn. I only had a 50mm F/1.8 lens on for this. I would have loved about a 35mm lens on, but I wouldn't have had time to go back to my house to change over, before the dawn washed out the planets and moon.

Other features are the same as "Dawn Of The Planets II". Thin crescent moon, with the planet Venus the bright spot to the right and just above the moon. The planet Mars is above those two , forming a triangle. Mercury is a bright spot near the bottom of the pic, in amongst the faint, wispy cloud.

I agree with SilverInkblot!

I really love the sharpness of the horizon's silhouette. It's like the earth just ends!

Also, it shouldn't be too hard to 'borrow' the horizon from the other image to expand this one's borders.
