Gloriously clear evening here in Devon - just got back after watching Venus emerge from behind the moon.
Taken less than an hour ago

Likewise for us in Wales - but I knew I'd find it here.

For once we had wonderfully clear skies here in Ireland but I found myself completely without a camera so no pictures from me but it was one of the most stunning night sky sights I've ever seen.
