bye bye Venus

Venus has been shining brightly in the evening sky for quite some time now, but it will be gone from the Bonaire skies any day now. If you live further to the north, like 40 degrees for example, you can spot Venus in both the evening and in the morning sky from March 21 to March 25. I took the above picture back on February 27. It was on the blog together with the Moon, which was nearby at the time.

Here is how Venus looked last night, March 19.
