Jupiter and Venus continue to separate after their closest approach earlier this week, as seen in the Chicago area this evening at 8 p.m. in this two second exposure.

Meanwhile at 8 p.m., Orion can be seen in the southern skies with its bright stars Betelgeuse and Rigel. This 30 second exposure accents the light pollution in the Chicago region.
