Mercury ... Setting?

More sunset time-lapse video from Sugar Grove. There haven't been too many really interesting sunsets, so I let this one go a little longer and ended up catching Venus and Mercury setting. Unfortunately, the video loses something in translation to the web and Mercury is almost lost in the noise. I'm going to try again and use my XSi instead of the Powershot.

This one was taken with my Canon Powershot A510, one exposure about every 7 seconds in during daylight at Aperture Priority. As it got darker I had to switch to manual and adjust the shutter speed until I hit the camera's maximum of 15 seconds.
