A Little Christmas Bonus

 

Last Monday night, Mrs. BFTP and I finished putting up the last of the Christmas lights on the house.  I stepped outside to snap a quick picture of the whole affair.

That bright object appearing in the background sky is the Jupiter/Saturn conjunction. 

I had forgotten all about the event, so after viewing this pic, I grabbed my little 60mm refractor telescope and 25mm Kellner eyepiece and had a good look-see of the planetary pair.  It was quite a treat seeing the two planets in the same telescopic field along with Titan and the Galilean moons of Jupiter...
