Morning Skies

These photos are from yesterday at 5:15 AM.

I cannot recall seeing so much of the night sky and morning sunrises as I have lately.  Oh yeah.  There's a puppy in the family now and potty training is foremost.  When in doubt, we go out.

Anyway, here is the view east of Venus in the pre-dawn horizon...

And my familiar pal, Orion (the hunter) in the southern sky....

And sunrise an hour later...

Make a point to check-out Venus and all the other wondrous stuff in the skies.
