Talking Brilliant seeing this morning!
Started off just average, but by 6:30am when I finished, it was the best I'd seen it in months and months.

Here's a sneak preview.. this is the 2nd last run of the session.

I've got 14 runs to get through, not all of them are as good as this but i'm so happy to have been out there when the seeing was good.

That is an awesome image Mike...
Makes me wish I'd given into the temptation and stayed up last night!
