Venus


I hope everyone is looking East before sunrise to enjoy the incredible brilliance of this awesome sight!!

Many mornings I have awakened on my cot in L A Bay to look out across the water and see Venus aglow.

Right now she is at her brightest and best for a few short weeks.

Enjoy!!!

I definitely noticed Venus seemed exceptionally bright this morning when I was out walking. Thanks for the information, the morning sky can be spectacular at times.

This needs a bit more work, but I think you have the makings of a country hit song here!

I camped on the beach there last year about this time and saw the same thing. One of the locals told me later what I saw was the anchor lite on an old trawler.
