Venus & Jupiter Conjunction


On September 4 2005 the planets Venus and Jupiter, along with the star Spica formed a lovely trio in the western sky sortly after sunset. This photo was taken from the Riverfront Walk in Washington NC looking west toward the US17 bridge over the Pamlico River. Venus and Jupiter are low in the sky in the upper left of the photo. Spica can barely be seen to the left of Venus (the brighter object).

Hey Bill,
Nice blog. I wish I could keep up with mine a little better but, you know how that goes.
See you this afternoon at the park.
