Explanation:
Sometimes the sky above can become quite a show.
In early September of 2010, for example, the
Moon and Venus converged, creating quite a
sight by itself for
sky enthusiasts around the
globe.
From some locations, though, the sky was even more picturesque.
In the featured image taken in
Spain, a crescent Moon and the planet
Venus, on the far right,
were captured during sunset posing against a deep blue sky.
In the foreground, dark
storm clouds loom across the image bottom,
while a white anvil cloud shape appears above.
Black specks dot the frame, caused by a
flock of birds taking flight.
Very soon after this picture was taken, however, the
birds passed by, the storm ended, and Venus and the Moon set.
Bright Venus is again visible
just after sunset this month
(2018 March) and will appear
quite near Mercury tonight and the rest of this week.
