Magical Moment

 When I went to the Castle the other evening, I had a very clear view of Jupiter and Venus in the sky from the Castle lawn - they were the brightest objects in the sky.

When I came out again, over an hour later, the stars had turned above the Earth, and Orion was just over the car park, with Sirius the Dog Star at his heels to the left, and Taurus the Bull to his right (a prominent V of stars) - and behind Taurus the misty cloud of the Pleiades.  It was beautifully clear.
