I left for work early today, around 6:30AM. The sun hadn't come up yet, but most of the sky was covered in a thin layer of clouds. As I went to my car, I happened to glance up at the southern sky. There was Orion, perfectly placed in my view. Orion is my favorite constellation - easy to find, bright stars of various colors, and nebulas visible to the naked eye. I happened to have my 10x50s handy in the car, so I picked them up for a quick look at the sword and M42. Great stuff!
As I drove into Pittsburgh, the sun started to rise, and the colors of the sky were amazing. I love fall in PA.
Can't wait for winter, when the hunter is more visible and skies are more dry and calm (I hope!)
Clear skies,
Todd
