Cloudy here too at the moment.... fingers crossed eh??

Thanks for the heads up on that- I had no idea.

The moon last night was huge and the moonlit clouds have been amazing for the last two nights. Like little balls of cotton wool, lined up in rows, each one moonlit from behind and so close that you felt you could reach out and pick one out of the sky.
I lurve looking at the night sky - so peaceful.

I hope someone manages a photo of the moon tonight- it'd be lovely to see one!

Overcast here hot and muggy no chance of seeing it tonight.

Just looked out - no sign of a moon through the rain

I can just see a dim white smudge through the clouds. Oh well, tomorrow's will be good too if it's clear.

I gave up waiting for a break intake clouds last night.
Pity , cos there were apparently 3 planets on the horizon too.
Fingers crossed for tonight then.
