About the 7-8 of November Mercury will be in the sky near Venus before sunrise and about as high as it will be over the horizon. Stellarium is showing this as a possible photo-op. These screen-shots are frozen at about 5:45 am at my location and you would be smart to check in Stellarium with your location for the ideal time pre-dawn.
Then on top of that on the morning of the 13th (and only that morning) the moon will be in-between Venus and Mercury.
What will be particularly interesting is that the moon is only 1 day removed from New phase, so just a hint of a crescent if we zoom in. It should make an awesome photo with the planets. If your local weather allows for it.
