A few images from this morning, luckily nice and clear, though sky fairly bright with a nearly full Moon sinking in the west.
Mercury shining brightly in Cetus.
A nice -2.1 ISS pass as well. :)
Dog and owners were back for their walk. ;)
Couldnt see the comet in binoculars, though is brightening.

Hi Liz, very nice set of images again although no palm trees, however having a tropical island has to be a big plus. Certainly very far removed from here in the outback.

I really love the effect of the dogs wiggly red light, is there any chance of finding out his name. Reckon a label with his name on by the red line would be a lovely touch.

Regards
Trevor

PS: Wouldn't it be great if the dogs name was Pluto.
