Venus Jupiter Conjunction March 21 2012 Over St. Lazare Québec

File these under "touched by an angel". . . ;-)

Tonight I had a date with a couple of angels in a St. Lazare graveyard.






Orion between two pointing angels.


Ursa Major aka The Big Dipper stands on end
to the left of a large birch tree in St. Lazare.
The downward pointing equilateral triangle
to the right of the birch tree is formed by
the stars Algieba (left) and Regulus (right)
with the planet Mars hanging below them.
