It was a cold, crisp, cloudless evening - unusual for the season. The two bright planets, Venus and Jupiter (center of picture, Venus on the right) were right next to each other, as if coming together for a cosmic kiss. It was stunning to see the combined brightness of this planetary pair. Venus is captured with lots of tiny pointed rays if you zoom in. Thanks again to EarthSky. Thank you very much.
