MOON, MARS AND VENUS AT START OF 2017

On January 2 the Moon ,Mars and Venus were visible at South-West in the evening hours.

   The Moon was that night three days old.

                                                                             

Of course ,the jets were doing their job leaving criss-crossing contrails  all over the sky.

Venus is seen at right ,the Moon with ashen light in the middle

 and ruddy Mars at left.

Only the Moon and Venus.

All pics taken with the Nikon Coolpix S3300 compact camera
