great shots Steve, under bad conditions mate. seeings poor here, loads of blue just the thermals are having a party. thanks charl.

[Steve Ward]

Thanks Charl .

Was just a matter of being ruthless and dumping all but the very best frames , was getting a little worried as I went through the selection process today , was looking like a complete waste of time 'til I stumbled across one clump of good'uns near the end of the last set ...  

[David Smith]

Nice one Steve. Clouds have taken over here now too.

[Steve Ward]

Thought I'd lucked out completely as the first clouds rolled over at exactly the same time as I saw a complete disc emerge from the greenery , coulda/shoulda got the ladder out earlier  really and 'gone up'ards' but couldn't be bothered ... 

[Pete Presland]

Nice set of disc's. 

[Davey-T]

Still a nice sharp set.

[Ewan]

Very nice Steve & you picked up what appears to be something new coming.

[Steve Ward]

Thanks Ewan ,

There were a few pores there according to SDO but that grey blanket never let them through , nearer the limb always suffers first I find , guess that extra 600,000Km will do that ...

Impressive full disks Steve. I particularly like their hearty size!
