A January Night Sky

I learned another meteor shower was in store--best viewed, of course, in the wee hours of the morning.  No problem for me!  I prepared for work which I'd be heading straight to after spending a few hours on our snowy neighborhood causeway, looking up at the night sky.

Disappointment from seeing a clouded sky blew away as I photographed things that stood out through the darkness.  The lights of an airplane drew a line across the sky.  Not a meteor, but spendid to catch anyway.

                                 Moonlight reflecting off the snow created stark contrasts.
