On my way back from a late night (early morning) at the Cheddar Ranch
Observatory, I was treated to a lovely rise of Venus and the moon in the
early dawn glow. This is a very old moon at about 27.8 days old and
Venus was a brilliant diamond above and south. Though tired after a
night of observing and photography, the view was so beautiful that I just
had to stop on the way home at Lake Overholser on the west side of OKC and
shoot the scene. Unfortunately my photograph does not do justice to
this view. It was truly beautiful!
