Despite high wispy cloud, I can barely believe it was clear enough for me to shoot from 9:30am to 4:30pm BST - My HDD got a serious work out with 130GB's worth of videos!

Thank you everyone for the nice comments, was cracking to see something like this, possibly the most interesting way to get a tan, eat food and have a few guests round to check out the view - think I encouraged a few people to get in to astronomy yesterday

Very cool, some nice action going on with the AR's too!

Really nice.  If it had happened that quick then I wouldn't have got so hot and been so cream crackered!
