I was really hoping to capture this on camera, but "Clear Outside" app is indicating 100% cloud cover later :-(.
We'll have to make do with good old Fred Espanak's wonderful image from Monday night in Arizona:

Typical Irish weather.
When I retire, I am definitely moving to somewhere with a better climate.

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better programs, and the universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the universe is winning.

What's the problem?
I have Venus and 7 Pleiades at 40X at 8.30 pm through my William Optics 158
mm F/7 apochromatic refractor!
Plus I have no shimmering at 320X on Venus!!

Clear skies are here again!!

Get out into your back gardens right away.

Happy Nights.

Aubrey.

Caught about 10 seconds in the 15x70s before the cloud rolled in - beautiful but brief even in the twilight. You'll have to make do with a screenshot:
