This morning despite clouds and thunderstorms moving through the area there were enough breaks in the clouds that allowed for getting a few pictures of the waning crescent Moon and Venus.

   Following the conjunction with Venus this morning watch tomorrow, Sunday morning August 16^th, for the 27-day old waning crescent Moon to have moved further east away from Venus. The Moon will be about 6-7^o from the ‘Twin’ star Pollux and a few degrees further from the other ‘Twin’ star Castor.
