Moon + Venus

 

Crescent + Dot

 

A sweet crescent moon with a planet--Jupiter!--to its left.

Faraway/Close-Up

 

How can something so far away look as if it is so close? (The magic of my fancy camera!)

And here is the moon and Venus. 

Moon Times Three

 

Guest appearance by Venus.

Sky Time

 

Drama!

Teeny tiny moon up there between the middle palm trees.

Venus and Jupiter are soooooo close tonight! 

Trio

 

The crescent moon, Jupiter, and Venus in the sky tonight. 

Moonshots

 

Early Tuesday a.m. was VERY cloudy, but the clouds did part for a few minutes, enough for me to see this part of the lunar eclipse. I realize it really just looks like a crescent moon, but it really is the eclipse...

This is the moon on Saturday the 5th...I believe that teeny speck at upper right is Jupiter? (Apparently lots of planets can be spotted in November!)

Over (and Under) the Moon

 

Moon...

Moon and two planets (Venus and Jupiter, I believe...)

Moon and Friend

 That's Venus sharing some space with the crescent moon...

Venus/Moon, Moon/Venus

 

Sliver of a moon with Venus. 

(This is from a couple of weeks ago...there was too much breaking bird news for me to post it until now, LOL.)

Close?

 Well, we tried to see comet Neowise a few weeks ago...we drove to the edge of the ocean. Lovely sunset with planet (Jupiter?) visible. We never saw Neowise, although the guys next to us with scopes and fancy cameras definitely had it in their viewfinders. So we sort of saw it? Kinda sorta?

Moon/Planet

So cool to see Venus!
