Details:
The Moon greets Venus in the procession clothed in light pillars. It was too cloudy this morning for all-sky views.

#1: Moon and Venus
#2: Moon, Venus and Pleiades
#3: Venusian light pillars. The bottom panel occurs earliest (4:51am); by the top panel the pillars have disappeared (5:15am MDT). The Moon is creating its own light pillars but the irregular lighting across the crescent makes them less recognizable as such.
#4: Moon, Venus, Mercury (in lower left corner), and the first glimpse of Aldebaran (slightly higher and right of center)

Link to next planet in line to the west. (Uranus)
