This photo shows Mercury in the early evening, positioned to the lower left of Auriga and the lower right of Gemini.  Maybe because it was still early in the evening, I did not catch Jupiter which must have been just below the horizon at this time.  Mercury shines at magnitude +0.71 on this date and has a diameter of 8.5" arcseconds.  At this point, it is situated well north of the ecliptic 22°24'09" from the Sun.
