Noctilucent Cloud Hunting...

[TakMan]

7 sightings over the last week... some better than others, but each observation offering something slightly different. Caught the crescent moon as well, so thrown these in here.

Have loads of data to enjoy processing over the next few weeks, but here are a few that I've sorted so far (in edition to my two recent posts).

Will add to this thread as I sort...
