A view along a river towards the west after sunset, with blue sky above and some light grey clouds mixed with the yellow and orange horizon light below. The north bank of the river has many houses on it and lights are reflected in the river. There are trees on the slope above. Venus and Mercury are both visible as white dots.

Another nice evening glimpse of #Mercury & #Venus in the dusk sky, this time looking west along the Neckar from the Alte Brücke in #Heidelberg.
Venus is brighter to the upper right; Mercury is along a diagonal to the left & down from there, just above the thin clouds.
As seen near the end of today’s 55km cycle – sunny & warm for early March, but chilling rapidly after sunset. I also found some Bärlauch (wild garlic) out towards Ladenburg 😋
