Almost touching

Time was 6.36am this morning. Having woken up, I crawled downstairs and out the house to catch the morning breeze. Saw Jupiter high up above me and decided to take a picture of it. Many pictures, actually. About 10-15 shots with my camera. I was lucky: managed to find one clear enough picture of the planet with its four Galilean moons. The others were all blur due to camera shake. It doesn't look like four in this picture though, because Io is about to orbit behind its mother planet. So, the moon and Jupiter were practically touching one another in this picture.
