Panasonic ZS 100 compact camera

Image Details:

Beautiful evening scene in a resort south of Cancun. Jupiter (top), Saturn (middle) and Venus (bottom center) almost perfectly aligned, while Fomalhaut (far left) was "admiring" this beautiful planetary trio. Even comet Leonard is visible as a tiny fuzz to the left of Venus, forming almost an equilateral triangle with Saturn and Venus. Mercury had set 20 minutes earlier and was only visible at bright twilight.
