Jupiter Rising over the mast - Later the Mist.

It was finger-tipping cold, the sky was clear, the light was fading, we were driving eastwards. 

Right in front of us was the evening star, not Venus, this time it was Jupiter the planet of gas enshrouded mystery.

The stars hadn't yet made an appearance, we drove on.

Ten minutes later we reached our park up for the night. 

Now we had the star show, above Jupiter Gemini was out and about.

The phone camera captured this picture: 

In the distance you can see the red lights of the Preseli Mast.

Gemini stands out in this.photo, you can see Bright Jupiter just to the left and below the star Wasat.

A great start for the evening, but alas an hour later in came the Preseli Mist and all stargazing was put on hold for another night.

Still it was great to see Jupter and Gemini on this most cold of nights.
