Bit of a rushed affair this morning , just fifteen minutes passes between the full disc clearing the rooftops and the clouds rolling over .... still managed a set of 100 disc frames , a camera change , re-align , re-focus and four AVIs of the bigger spots ... 

Not the prettiest set but a set nevertheless ...

Lovely shot, Steve

I was all set up for an early shoot and would you believe it, the forecast site got it wrong. Forecast of 0% cloud, was in reality, 98%!

Note to self: never believe a forecast site! Throw your lot in with satellite imagery and a toss of the dice

I just rely on Sat24 these days , today was a pain as it was crystal clear at 06:00 but he doesn't come into view now 'til 06:43 ... all set up ready and watching the grey approaching's a good way of focusing the mind though ... 

Had a look a while ago but wasn't worth taking up HD space with ...

Nice shot again Steve.

Great timing Steve and a nice end result. I was up early as we were going out for the day, would you believe it, it was really very windy and quite a lot of cloud. In the end there was no point in rushing out and I gave it a try over brekkie, but got nowt. I had to tr at 5:30pm instead.
