Thanks Toxic. I was putting the kids to bed around 7:30 and noticed it was clear, so grabbed camera and a towel, ran outside chucked the camera onto the towel on the snow, focused on the igloo and set 30s on the 10s timer and legged it back in before any of the kids noticed I was gone.

Picked up the camera 20 minutes later, clouded out, well chuffed that the image worked.

Thanks Ruud. Orion sits nicely out the front of my house, and snow is always a winner in my book.
