Quite sharp despite cirrus. Very quiet on the sun at the moment

All quiet again......

A week is a long time in this game ... 

Bound to pick up again soon ... seems to be plenty going on just round the corner from what I can see on SDO's latest video ...

Thank you all ,

We were a little spoilt for things to focus on last week , but at least it's not so painful if we miss a day this week ...

It's nice to see the Sun, one way or another.  I was really hopeful for today, after a beautifully clear night last night and the following forecast when I got up this morning:

Unfortunately this is how it has turned out so far today:

Hi James ... 

Ouch .... it's been pretty grim everywhere I think and there's not much sign of a clear patch til Friday night , was hoping for a pop at Jove now the jetstream's wandered away a little but the holes been filled with grey ... 

[JamesF]

Fortunately I did get out for a while last night.  Saw an absolute corker of a meteorite and did a bit of imaging too (and found I was painfully rusty):

Sterling effort, Steve. I think we had similar fun and games our way with the clouds, following Met Office giving some false hope

[DrRobin]

I see your cloud (and rain) filter, mentioned by Alexandra is still working?  Nice capture under difficult conditions.

Very nice start to the day up here, but by the time the sun came up high enough it had gone behind cloud so I had to make do with another couple of shots of the moon.

Just grabbed a couple of hundred filthy frames , but got my work cut out getting rid of the grey today ... 

Plenty of new bits to make it a worthwhile exercise though ....
