pink trails and guest blogging
My sky is usually free of clouds, but occasionally there’s a bit of messiness to it and jets leave contrails behind. Sometimes the contrails at sunset are fairly interesting. The one above is an example. Venus is a teeny speck below and left of the contrail. Maybe averted vision will help you pick it out. 
Oh, and this is uber cool! I was the guest blogger on Astronomy.com this week. Check it out at http://cs.astronomy.com/asycs/blogs/daves-universe/archive/2012/01/17/guest-blog-becky-s-bucket-list.aspx
Thanks to editor Dave Eicher at Astronomy.com for putting me in the starlight!
