I drove to a location with a great western view to take this photograph. Jupiter (magnitude -1.9) and Venus (magnitude -4.0) were at an altitude of about 16.5 degrees and were separated by a bit more than 2 degrees at the time. Mercury (magnitude 0.0) was about 7 degrees above the horizon.

I edited the photograph somewhat using the iPhone editing functions and in Photoshop.
