It was raining the other side of the valley - and that meant a rainbow decided to dissect our Christmas star.

Was a grouping of planets and the moon the inspiration for the Christmas star long ago?

This evening was perfect weather to see the thin crescent moon, brilliant Venus, and Mercury...low in the southwest sky after sunset.

Twilight is dynamic and magic. Sky colors change, bands of orange and red lay along the horizon as the rest of the sky goes purple.

The first photo is somewhat abstract...no horizon for reference.

Astrophotography challenge for the "Christmas Star" this evening!

About 30 minutes after sunset, Venus, Mercury, and a very thin crescent moon will be very low in the southwest. Find a place with no buildings or trees to enjoy this spectacle.
