Photos of morning planets and moon, March 28
View at EarthSky Community Photos | Nathan Eaton, Jr. in Dallas, Texas, captured this view of the moon together with Saturn, Venus and Mars, before sunrise on March 28, 2022, and wrote “Living in a neighborhood full of old, tall trees, it takes getting out of the neighborhood to have a clear horizon. White Rock Lake is a favorite destination so I picked a spot on the west shore from which to shoot. I think the reflection of the moon and reeds in the foreground made for a more interesting image.” Thank you, Nathan!View at EarthSky Community Photos | Ginger English in Bauxite, Arkansas, captured this view of the moon together with Saturn, Venus and Mars, before sunrise on March 28, 2022, and wrote “Beautiful early morning view of 3 of the 4 planets visible with the tiny piece of the moon, greeted Arkansans this crisp Spring Monday morning.
