Also clear up here on the Atherton tablelands, unexpectedly
Since had been promised rain. So grabbed gear and popped out of town. Then even the wispy clouds vanished as I set up, 105mm on AZ-EQ6. Aligned on Venus (really pretty thin crescent) and then added binoviewer with Denk 21mm.

When dark enough to find, it was a delight, bright core, lovely come and ample tail. But had stupidly set tripod up too high, so eventually it was too awkward to continue. Best view so far, and when no more was expected.
