When the stars smile down at you

 Just after sunset tonight (clouds pending), there will be a big smiley face in the sky. Smile

The two 'eyes' will be jupiter and venus (the brighter one), with the crescent moon being the mouth. We get the best views in Australia (and funnily enough, the US will get a frowning face :p)

 

Not something that happens too often, so if you get a chance tonight, look up (well actually close to the horizon...)

Fishing isn't a matter of life or death, it's much more serious than that!!!

That's a great shot. Typical!!!! A little cloud cover here would have made a big difference in the shots we took and we end up getting clear skies Sealed

Cheers,
