Some old Moon and Venus pics
I'm really wishing for some clear skies. In lieu of that, I've been going through my Pictures drive.
I came across some Moon and Venus pics. Venus, being the morning/evening star is in the dawning or twilight hours. When the Moon is present, it can make for some good shots.

And this is from January 31st, 2019 at 1:16PM EST. A rare clear day and a rare shot, at least for me.
Hopefully I get some clear skies soon; all I've done with my scopes is keep them covered...!!
