Explanation:
Before a relaxing sunrise, the sky begins to glow
with unusual delights. Such was the view from Papago Park in
Phoenix,
Arizona this April.
The glittering objects visible in
this photograph are, from lower left to upper right:
Phoenix, our Moon,
Venus, and
Jupiter.
Such proximity is somewhat unusual. Jupiter will be
visible in the evening sky through the rest of the year,
while Venus can be seen in the early morning sky during the month of
September.
