Mars, Jupiter, Venus and Mercury.... all in the same little patch of sky along the solar ecliptic plane. Home planet is a free software program for enthusiasts.

This is the answer, it was Venus, Jupiter, Mars and Mercury that day. Sometimes planets look brighter through the camera.
In the early dawn, Mars, Jupiter, Venus, and Mercury will be clearly visible to the naked eye low in the eastern sky from May 9-12, 2011, with the planets brighter than the stars, and slightly less luminescent than the moon. The actual configuration will look different dependent upon your viewpoint on Earth, with the best views in the Southern Hemisphere. Starting an hour before sunrise, the planets will start to come into view, first Venus, then Jupiter 5-10 minutes later, followed by Mercury and finally Mars.
