When Jupiter and Saturn Align

 12-21-2020 The planets aligned, appeared closer and more vibrant — almost as a single point of light — than at any time in 800 years.  We drove to a church that sits up high and has a nice view of the southern sky.  Just as the sun was setting we caught this image.  Kind of fitting for the week of Christmas, on winter solstice, and for viewing what called the Star of Bethlehem.  

Here is what we caught of the planets aligning with the iphone.

and with the cannon lense. 

Last but not least  is the moon that was above us in the sky.

Smooches,
