  14. Very beatiful sky pictures - specially those with the moon and the star! Like it very much.
    (I spent some hours in Vienna on our journey home from Israel last march. Took a cab into the center of the city and walked around with my husband. Saw the Stephansdomen and the Spanish rideshcool and got a first impression of the city. Would like to go back and see more!)

    Love the picture with the bird in the tree. I missed out on the moon, Jupiter and Venus shot as it was raining... Glad that some Skywatch Friday people were able to capture it.
