No Meteors or Conjunctions for me. I slept this one out but I did wake up to this beauty! @StormHour @ThePhotoHour @MoonHourSocial #MoonHour

Super Conjunction! Jupiter (above) and Venus less than one degree apart. Zoom in to see Jupiter's Moons. It was a close game with the clouds and daybreak which I won! @StormHour @ThePhotoHour

Superb Mackeral skies here in the south east. Much discussed this morning by @SimonOKing on @BBCBreakfast I hope Charlie will remember it's called Altocumulus Undulatus! @CloudAppSoc @StormHour @ThePhotoHour

At last! The Pleiades (M45) - the 'Seven Sisters' - has finally reached an elevation this summer so I could get an hour on it before dawn this morning. I've photographed them many times but never captured the nebulocity until now. #astronomy #Pleiades @StormHour @ThePhotoHour

Hello Tweeps/Xers! Thought I'd share what I've been up to on the other side! I bowed to the inevitable and got a smart scope. The Dwarf 3 to be precise. Here's what it/I delivered this month - described in ALT #astronomy #astrophotography @StormHour @ThePhotoHour @MoonHourSocial

First sight of tonight's Moon, rising through the 'Belt of Venus' just as the Sun sets! It'll only rise to about 9.5% above the horizon so a tough spot with trees and houses in the way! @StormHour @ThePhotoHour @MoonHourSocial #MoonHour

This evening's Moon looks great and quite yellow due to it being quite low in the South. Waxing at 91.1% full. It'll be a 'Buck' when 100% on Thursday and just skirting the horizon. @StormHour @ThePhotoHour @MoonHourSocial #MoonHour

A Redwing with insect food for its chicks. Breeding in North West Scotland. Took this last week. Usually down south I only ever see them eating berries!

The Fairy Glen of Skye. Surrounded by glens and waterfalls, this geological feature created by a landslide, known for its folk tales about fairies is now populated by Sheep, Foxgloves and tourists who make 'fairy rings' which the locals remove! @StormHour @ThePhotoHour
