[grum]

a bit different from the norm, but if you look north at the moment you'll see Jupiter and Venus very clearly ........... then turn around 180 degrees and you'll see the red hue of Mars

If you have an Iphone download night sky and point the phone up at the stars/planets and it will display them and will tell you what you are looking at brill

fog has just overcome the clear skies of the southern riviera, but i managed to get a few shots for those that are pea-souper'd

the first one is Venus (brighter) and the other is Jupiter



then turned around to see Mars in amongst the Milky Way
