So Mars went behind the moon last night, and I took some quick shots while it did it. Notice the little (slightly red) dot down at the lower left hand side of the moon. Watch as it gets closer.

Nice!
If you put them in a "regular" folder we could scroll through them instead of retreating here to click on/view each one. |

This isn't a big deal. Saturn will already be on the horizon at sunset, with Mercury not far behind. Neptune and Uranus are just tiny dots unless you have a huge telescope. Venus, Jupiter, and Mars won't look any different than they do now, and they're widely spaced in the sky. |

Yeah, I saw they're not clustered, just all visible at once. Maybe a 180° fisheye pointed straight up would work? Or stitch a panorama?
And thanks for posting your pictures -- look good!
