With a pair of binoculars and a good idea of where to look it was soon possible, even in the bright evening light, to make out the much dimmer point of light that was the planet Mercury, much lower down and very close to the trees. Cameras were pointed in the direction and an image of the closest planet to the sun was obtained.
