Jupiter is just coming over the horizon right now! Yesterday morning the moon was on the other side of Venus. Can't wait to see them again.

Nice picture!

And that *is* Antares - no maybe!

for confirming that!

It's a beautiful photo. Antares is pretty noticeably red or at least orange even to the naked eye, and the whole constellation of Scorpius is beautiful, bright, well-defined and actually looks like what it represents. So you were dead right. Jupiter and Venus (as well as Mars and Saturn) have been hanging around in the Virgo-Libra-Scorpius area for a while now.

You must be an early-bird! (with a camera!)

Noticed the arc out my bedroom window so went out on the balcony for the shots.

It's still a bit too cold to venture out with my camera!

Only out on the balcony for a couple of minutes.

Anyways, nice photos.

The science’ gotta be right

1 : the time from dusk to dawn when no sunlight is visible

So I stand by my post. The first shot was taken around 5:30 am before any sunlight was visible. When I edited the OP to add the photo taken at dawn, I also edited the OP title to reflect dawn.

And we appeared to have a different view yesterday
We saw planet - moon - plant almost in a straight line. It was incredible.
We were traveling and it was -15 so I didn't get a picture.

I'll have to study up on those.
