Smoky dawn...
in southern Utah this morning (click to enlarge.) That's Venus, in the upper right, made ruddy by the suspended smoke in the atmosphere.

The Bu Element
J.P. Buchanan
Cheney, America
I am a professor of geology at Eastern Washington University. While my academic focus includes sedimentology, hydrogeology, and geomorphology, I am easily excited about all things geological. I am also an experienced world traveler, an avid photographer, and a passionate amateur astronomer. [All blog entries and original images posted herein: © 2009-2015 J.P.
