Saturn and Venus in the dawn sky...

For those of you who enjoy a bit of Astronomy: three bright planets are quite close together in the south-eastern sky just before dawn. Brightest and furthest to the 'right' (west) is Jupiter, while to the east are Venus (very bright) and Saturn. Over the next couple of days Saturn and Venus will move closer together and will be worth taking a look at with binoculars. If you have a big lens (say a 500mm / f4) you could definitely obtain a single image showing both Saturn's famous ring system and Venus' phase...
