What do you do while waiting for the clouds to clear?

You take pictures of the clouds!

Here is a sequence of images over a period of 40 minutes from last night. I had to cut almost half the frames and severely squash the images to get it under 150k.

The original was 1280 x 960 and was 12 MB in size. It's a pity because you can see a lot more stars in that one.

I ended up taking 22 x 1 minute exposures over a period of 45 minutes.

I just resized each frame in Irfanview and then used AdGIF to produce the animated gif.

I look forward to seeing your version. :)

That's an excellent animation Andrew. Wish I'd thought of that while waiting for the clouds to clear. :P

If you think this small version is good you will love the bigger version. Does anyone feel like hosting a 640 x 480 @ 4.9 MB version?? I don't have my own webspace.
