Hi,
For those who might have missed it tonight, the moon and Venus were giving a very nice display in the western sky

Hi Alan
Nice image, have to say I've never seen an internal reflection like that, very unusual effect.

Hi Dave , thanks.

I just assumed it was internal reflections ,
New lens
Quite dark at the time.
and the moon is very over exposed
but its not in all the images just 4 taken after dark
If its cloud. Happy days
Alan

Nice images Dave. For some reason I've always though Al Debaran and the Hyades would be a great name for a band :)
