Thanks John . It was very pretty until the cloud came over and drizzled

Hi David,

Lovely image. Cloudy here this morning.
Looking forward to Thursday when Neptune and Venus meet and on May 1st when Jupiter and Venus are very close to each other.

Richard.

Thanks Dennis, it rained Yesterday and will do tomorrow as well with huge clouds for the rest of the week so getting the other conjunction stuff will be best done in a software programme unfortunately

That may be the case for the rest of the week. Gotta say it was fluky, as I saw it from home then drove into town and then realised that the cloud was again closing in so went back home and lucky I did, managed to use the camera. The funniest thing was when the camera fell out of the ball head. Thank goodness it was only 11inches to the ground. And I didn't use a remote because I couldn't find it. Need to use the camera more because I forgot almost how to use it.
