Astronomy alert

Just wanted to give you all a "heads up" (so to speak). RFN the waxing crescent moon, Venus and one other planet (not sure which) are all in very close conjunction low in the western sky for an hour or two right after sunset. They almost form a smiley-face shape, and I think it will get better as the moon waxes over the next 12 hours or so, meaning dwellars in other time zones might get a better scene than me. I am still fooling around with my camera but knowing how many photographers there are in the cellar I thought I should share the opportunity.

I'll see if any of my pictures turn out nicely and post any that do.
