What sort of cloud do you want, I got it all here:

High
Low
Scattered
Thick
Thin

Im just waiting for drizzle to fall! It was perfect last night for my dry run.

Big thanks to the neighbour who has turned on all his outside lights.

However we have not yet begun to fight!!! All is ready, I just need 30 seconds of total Huey, thats not much to ask surely!

Totally clouded in here in the Yarra Valley and looks like it's not going to clear. Melbourne looks the same.

got an alright view for about a minute, but now the clouds have moved back in and ruined it. maybe if we all go outside with our leaf-blowers to get rid of those damn clouds.

A drive along the Dark Edge of the Moon - mosaic.

Hi Guys

Well, we’re clouded out in Brisbane right now, so here is an image I prepared earlier. This is a 4 panel mosaic from last night (Monday 27th August) when I went for a drive along the lunar terminator. I almost fell off the edge!

Warning: 1600 pixels wide! Takahashi Mewlon 180 F12 DK, Vixen x2 Barlow, DMK 21AF04.AS ccd camera.

Cheers

Dennis
