By getting up bring-n-early Monday the 17th, I was able to capture the conjunction of three beautiful objects in space: 1) Crescent Moon, 2) Venus, 3) Earth. Well, my close proximity to that last one -- my own planet -- makes it so that I could only show a relatively small piece. So I chose a picturesque section to represent Earth: Mount Hood, silhouetted by the coming sunrise.
Although the triad is lovely, showing all of the members together required a low-detail wide shot. Here is the mountain by itself, in all its glory:
And, here is a close-up of the Moon and Venus:
An hour later, the last member of the triad -- Earth -- dominated the sky by turning it bright blue. ;-)
