At 17:15hrs tonight there was only 3 lights in the Sky... To the Ewast is Jupiter, then the Moon and to the West is Venus... May pay to have a look tomorrow night ( although they are still visable now ) before the next Storm arrives on the weekend...

Those photos are so cool. Makes one so insignificant in the greater scheme of things, doesn't it?

Doggitt, are those pics from Hubble colour enhanced?
First clear night here for a while, and Jupiter is highly visible, wonder if it is a sign, or maybe it will go down in history as one?
