Before all the media frenzy
Night sky at Salton Sea
Before all the media frenzy of the Jupiter and Saturn great conjunction past Monday, the largest and the second largest planets already appeared to be on their way. Those two bright streaks in the center of the sky were those. People in general weren’t just aware of it.
The stars were slowly traversing heaven as the darkness fell all around the lake. Unfortunately though the presence of the bright moon dimmed the view of the Milky Way, and it forced me to settle on the star trails.
Would you like to walk down the stepping stones and hop on the swing in the moonlit lake?
Merry Christmas everyone.
