An unusual triangle of light will be particularly bright near the eastern horizon before sunrise during the next few months for early birds in northern hemisphere. this triangle of light is actually Zodiacal Light, light reflected from dust particles orbiting in the plane of the solar system.

Nice capture of ZL, plus some green airglow too. By the way, lovely California nebula!
