Glad you found a little window to capture something
Over the past few weeks the days have been fairly clear but nights have been mostly cloudy , clearing in time for sunrise and the immediate forecast looks grim too
El Niño or La Niña ?
Patience is a virtue , clear nights will probably arrive just in time for the next full moon again
Grumble , grumble …….

Thanks Martin- yeah it’s been all clouds of late and even while I was shooting this there was a fair bit around but as long as it stays thin you can still capture these bright giants. There was a short period of maybe 30min while I had the binoviewers on, when the transparency was just outstanding. Seeing was still on/off a bit but when it was clear it was seriously like looking at a magazine pic at 450x. The colour saturation through the eyepiece was something I’ve never seen before. Unfortunately those kind of conditions don’t hang around for long
