Scrawny Old Man

Moon & 2 planets

'I've forgetten to get the washing in' says Mrs RT. So I gallantly went out into the cold and dark, wondering if I'd ever find my way back in, and saw the stunning beauty of the moon and first few stars & planets against the deep blue of the last light of the setting sun. So I bundled the washing into the basket and hurried in to get camera and tripod.
The light had faded even more by the time I got this, but here's a shot of the moon and 2 planets. One of them's called earth - I didn't quite get it all in. I don't know what the other one is but I'm sure somebody will tell me pretty soon. Thank you.

Edit - I found out from this blip which is far superior to mine - it's Venus.
