Details:
The largely cloudy day broke up enough at sunset to catch the Christmas Eve gathering of the Moon, Mercury, and Venus, before they closed in again for the night. Once after the sun set I found the slender 1.8-day-old Moon and then Venus almost immediately, but the timelapse was past its halfway mark before Mercury was spotted by eye shortly before Venus set.
