She’d be 28 now, unless she was born on January 1, then she’d be 29.

I swear I can see guy wearing a cowboy hat in this horse’s shadow. Hopefully it’s the ghost of 2020 getting the heck out of Dodge. Don’t let the door hit you in the caboose on the way out! Happy New Year everyone!

I believe this shows the entirety of the Clyde Park government infrastructure. Note the restraint shown in the understated Christmas decorations.

Some of the numerous folks who migrated to the ridge near our house to view the conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn on the solstice last week. The bonus sunset was an unexpected treat.

I don’t really understand the process by which air bubbles end up frozen in ice, but it always looks like they were in the process of rising to the surface of the water when they were suddenly flash-frozen in place.

Our house in town sits 15 to 20 feet higher than our neighbor’s so we’re looking down on their backyard. That put us in a good position to view these sagging snow shapes sitting on top of the parallel cross beams on their pergola.

POTD: Celestial Abstract
Celestial Abstract
Bozeman, Montana
2020
This shot of a mobile hanging from our ceiling is dedicated to the historic conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn the other day, which as expected, we were not able to view because of clouds. When the furnace kicks in, the moving air spins the shapes in the mobile around the green ball in the center, further aiding the celestial feel it gives off.
Since it also contains festive colors including the traditional red and green colors of Christmas, it also serves to mark this holiday season. Hope you’re all staying safe and enjoying it in whatever way the pandemic allows you to.
Addendum: I wrote this post before the conjunction. It turns out that after days of overcast weather, the skies cleared just enough that evening that we were in fact able to view it. The next morning it was all overcast again. A solstice miracle!
