Hello all - I posted some pictures of this evening's sunset from my backyard in Tucson. I also had the opportunity to release some moistons from my new pair of Canon 18x50 IS binoculars. I had the in-laws over for dinner and showed them the Moon, Venus, Uranus, Mars and Saturn. The Moon was very nice, being accompanied by thin wispy clouds that gave an almost surreal effect. I was also able to spot Neptune but neither of my in-laws were sure they saw this planet. All-in-all, not too bad for binocular observing from mid town Tucson. Happy holidays to all.
