A nice Sunset Scene

This week take a look west as the Sun sets. Venus is passing by the first magnitude star Regulus which is in Leo. They're only a little more than a degree apart. Bright Venus catches the eye first well above the horizon. Watch as the glow of sunset fades and Regulus pops out of the twilight a little below Venus. The view through binoculars is superb. Not far above them and slightly east are both Mars and Saturn. Regulus is the bright star and the end of the upside question mark which is Leo.
