St. George and the Prom

[Luke]

Cor what a big prom today on St. George's Day!  It's also my wedding anniversary today. My brilliant wife Sarah (10 happy years!) let me go image the big prom when I got in from work. Well, it was a big 'un!

My first go at processing the prom, not sure if I can get finer detail later by stacking frames from a shorter time span instead of the 70 seconds worth here.

Thanks for posting your image Luke, a wonderful momento of great prominence. I had great views of it before 8.25 this morning when I had to leave for work.

Gorgeous pic, actually looks more suited to November 5th than St Georges day.

Excellently done!

[Bizibilder]

That is a really good image - well done that man!! (and an understanding wife - where would we be without them!!)

[Luke]

Thanks everyone for the kind words on the image and on my ten happy years

Sarah is still solar mad so she understands my addiction even if I do push my luck at times. I am hoping she will come back to the dark side of imaging later this year Another hobby competes for her attention Must say her hobby is independent of the weather, that is a nice feature!

Good luck everyone for some rays this weekend. Forecast is poor here but I have set up early just in case as the spectacular prom still seems to be hanging on, looking at Gong

[Joves]

Awesome, as usual, Luke. Fantastic prom, that's for sure!!
