coruscations attending the whole length of the luminosity, giving to the phenomena the aspect of a wrathful messenger, and not that of a tranquil body pursuing a harmless course..comet of 1680

Martin - your best shot to date in my own opinion, it's easy to miss the features on the moon when shooting it - you've captured it at it's best.

Great scene!

I'm just waiting for a witch on her broom to fly by,
If you had used a higher iso, the cloud might not have been as blurred, but a nice effect all ther same.
The clouds were zipping along here last night
