Autumnal Sky - 20 October 2014

Autumn mornings before sunrise the splendor of the heavens can be seen very clearly. Below is a picture I took this morning of the moon and Jupiter together.

"Eastward was my glance directed,
Watching for the sun's first rays;
In the south—oh, sight of wonder!
Rose the bright orb's sudden blaze.
Thither was my eye attracted;
Vanished bay and mountain height,
Earth and heaven unseen and all things,
All but that enchanted light." - Goethe, "Faust"
