    Striking purple light this morning, which disappears within just five minutes. First picture taken at 6:40 CET (Sun 3.2° below the horizon), second picture at 6:45 CET (Sun 1.8° below the horizon).

    Venus, the crescent moon and Mercury were accompanied by a beautiful purple light (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afterglo) at dusk today.

    The purple light disappeared relatively quickly as the sun sanke deeper below the horizon. There are just 6 minutes between the two pictures.
