This one almost didn't happen as heavy clouds eventually took over!

 

Cheers!

Thanks, Pete. They were playing peek-a-boo with some serious rain clouds, but I managed to snap a few during opportune moments. Did you get to see them?

Seen them pretty much every night Reggie. We are going through  a bit of a drought at the moment, its been very dry and pretty clear for quite a while.  

Particularly nice view last night with the Moon in the same area as well. Venus is disappearing really quickly now. I hope you are keeping well Reggie 👍

Lucky dog! It's been pretty much cloud here since I took that shot. I'm doing well and being safe. Things are reopening in the U.S. at an alarming rate. It's nice to have hobbies that don't require close contact, lol. You stay safe, too, Pete

Excellent image Reggie. I have had mixed weather so missed this. Thanks for sharing.

Best regards George

Thanks, George. I'm keeping an eye on Mercury as it reaches elongation. Hope all is well. Keep safe!
