The skies were clear last night so I headed outside to get a picture of the waxing crescent Moon.

You could clearly see a planet to the left of the Moon so I did a quick Google search to find out which planet it was. This isn't a great picture but you get the idea. The line you see in the middle is a telephone or some type of wire.

After figuring out that the planet was Jupiter my husband and I headed back out in the cold to see if we could get a picture. Using a tripod, he got this shot. What do you think? I did another Google search and there are rings on Jupiter's surface. Do you think we were looking at it from the bottom up?
