Rodger Painter of Gaffney took this shot of his city's town hall and clock in December 2008.
He writes: "The three brightest objects in the night sky attracted much attention Monday evening (12/1/08) as they converged to produce what was hailed by astronomers as the sky show of the year. The crescent Moon and the two brightest planets Venus and Jupiter are shown here in a triple conjunction above the Gaffney city hall, outshining a Christmas tree which can be seen in a window. The clock you see on the building is actually the original town clock which was in our first city hall. Following tradition, this is the third building to use the same clock."
