Just as the charts predicted, Venus and the Moon seemed to almost touch yesterday morning, and appeared to wink and smile. However, the charts could not have predicted that a bat would photobomb the image; it seemed to just brush the top of the darker part of the Moon. I could have easily erased the shadowy smudge of the furry, flying mammal, but chose not to. It almost appears to be tickling top of the Moon, so why shouldn’t the Moon be smiling?
