I went to a small park on the east side of the St Johns River and was treated to a beautiful view of the conjunction of Jupiter with Mars and the Moon with Saturn.I used a low-light video camera (Supercircuits PC23C) with 50mm Contax f/1.7 SLR lens (giving approximiately 5 degree FOV) to record real-time images to Hi-8 video tape. I digitized the recording using Dazzle video capture device and made a mosaic of three still images.The mosaic and the full video are available on my FTP site at ftp://24.129.70.60 A high speed digital or cable modem is recommended for the video, since it runs about 35 Mb.
