Just wondering if anyone else was looking at the “planetary parade” last night (Feb 28) and may have seen the planets setting early in the evening. I took a photo at 18h 59m and assumed I was photographing Mercury and possibly Saturn in a straight line below Venus. I am now wondering if they would in fact be visible at that time? According to Stellarium they would have set by this time at my location in Kent.
So I would be most interested to know if anyone in southern England happens to have seen them.
Many thanks
