Back

Venus and Mercury close together after sunset tonight.

I lucked out: I remembered they would be visible when I got to the store; the parking lot was wide & slightly uphill from the western side of the street, giving me a clear view; the sky had just darkened enough to see both; the clouds were just wispy enough not to block them.

I still had to crop out a street light and its lens flare to get this photo, or I would have framed it better.
