Three planets one night

About this image

It has taken me a while to process my images of Saturn from the night of the 17th but this is a composite showing the three planets as seen through my equipment that pre-dawn morning in steady 'seeing' conditions. Saturn was imaged first then Jupiter and lastly Mars, (They all consist of one IR sequence + one RGB sequence derotated to the same time). Io's shadow is in transit on Jupiter with Io and Callisto visible to the left of the planet.
