      Weekends have been disappointing this year! Am lucky that solar brekkie is now on the menu, it was doing my head in seeing so many poor weekend forecasts and rushing focus when any clear bits turned up! Good luck for some fine weekend weather soon!

  14. David Smith

    Typical, due to be clear tonight of all nights!

  16. David Smith

      It was stunning, David, so orange, I said to the Mrs to come and have a look. Took a few DSLR snaps but I have no clue what most of the settings do on the camera!

      It was almost red for me.

  19. David Smith

    What was supposed to be a clear sky last night looked suspiciously cloudy to me!

    1. Qualia

      Qualia

      Much the same here, David. Prepared everything and the mist/fog rolled in.

    2. Marki

      Marki

      Yup - got home, set up scope, went in to make tea, clouded over, went in to eat tea, looked as of cloud breaking up, went backin for a cuppa, then came out and it had actualy rained a bit (scope ok). Totally clear at midnight when I looked at bedtime! Grr!

    3. Luke

      Luke

      I aborted plans to image me some moon with the SCT! Pesky forecasts! There were dribs and drabs but I want a nice long clear patch and the Moon nice and high! Seeing was too boiling to sneak in close when it was lower down. At least we had a quick look at Jupiter, the Moon and M42!

  20. David Smith

    When will the cloudy nights end!?
