Has been cloudy every morning for some time here so nothing to see.
Also to see east and low I have to walk a half mile across the ice to
see the eastern horizon. At well below -30C I've not felt like doing
this even if it was clear. Thanks for sending.

Given all that I know I would have never taken the Picture! Here's a
composite of this mornings Cloudy Conjunction with an inset of yesterdays
Clear shot that shows the difference in positions.

With that low horizon you can try for Venus and Mercury on the 26 and
27th of this month. Not quite as close to each other and lots closer to
the sun. Should be a challenge. They rise only about an hour before
the sun from my latitude, yours is likely different.

Here they are from August '06. My Eastern Horizon is all of 1.5 or 2
degrees ;-). The mountains you're seeing are the Chiricahua's.
