Festive Merry Lichen

Merry Christmas from me at the Outback Rover blogsite to you, the reader, wherever you may be.

Conjunction

The great conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn on December 21, 2020. The apparent position of Jupiter and Saturn next to each other (conjunction) in the sky has not been seen this close for approximately 400 years. This was a truly once in a lifetime event. And this photo captures it almost exactly as it looked to the eye through the eyepiece. Taken with a TeleVue 101is at 540mm, with 4x Powermate.

Essential Worker

During these times of Isolation amidst the COVID-19 outbreak, it is great to see that the essential workers of the world are still out and about doing their thing, oblivious to human concerns.

Straya Day View

A view from the top of Wildhorse Mountain for an Australia Day walk. Happy Australia Day peeps.

Sea Unicorn

Is that a one horned sea horse I see before me?
Yes, a Woodfordian Sea Unicorn.
Happy 2020.
