About this image

I had intended to capture all seven planets in 24 hours but that night as I was looking for Neptune a bank of cloud moved over it and stayed put.  In the end I also used a Jupiter image from two days earlier as by the time I was ready dawn was breaking on 30th July.  I had also captured the former planet Pluto (not included) a few days earlier.
