Thanks Maurice. I thought your shot with the observatory dome in silhouette was excellent by the way.

Pete - that is a pice of artwork!

Especially the first pic depicts the earthshining part of the Moon very beautifully. The clouds look perfect - and the seven sisters - what can you say! Beautiful!

Thanks for sharing!

Be well and clear skies!

Share - and you shall have it all
