Beautiful sky view yesterday

 Hello, everyone. 

Continuing the learn-as-you-go work on the phone, I went outside before sunrise yesterday to try and see the astronomical conjunction that I had read and heard about.

It's supposed to be a lineup of four planets with the crescent moon nearby.

In my area, we're close enough to the sea that most early mornings are cloaked in clouds, which blow away after the sun comes up. I was therefore not optimistic about my chances to see anything at all.

Looking east about half an hour before sunrise, two planets were playing hide and seek, so to say, with the breaking clouds and the moon was bright enough to shine through. 

Beautiful!
