FINALLY the cloud cleared today, and feeling like Trinity seeing the clear sky for the first time, in the Matrix sequel, I went up to the castle and got some pics...
That last one shows the ISS moving through the sky too... -------------------- |

This evening was perfect for planet watching from North Wales. I decided to take some white paper to a really dark spot and succeeded - just - in seeing shadows cast by Venus for only the second time in my life.

Keep looking - Venus will be brightest around April 30. Furthest out from the Sun March 26. |
