Nice and clear here, but too many buildings in the way to catch it low on the horizon. By the time I can see it clearly, it'll be dark and much higher.

Well, it's low here too Heather but the cloud is so thick all I can see is a yellowish glow. I'll keep an eye open just in case the clouds suddenly part though......

This is about the best view I got from the back yard.

(Further zoomed shots in the rest of that set on Flickr.)

These were from Parliament Hill on Hampstead Heath. I think the large building is Highbury. No idea what the hell caused the dark spot around the moon in the second pic, but it happened on several others too. :?

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

That looks like a sun :shock:

Sadly I just read this thread. However, I did notice the nice big moon. As did my guest humans and dog, although we were mostly distracted by food and a ball.

Nice!

Wish I had my camera with me last night, the moon was this superb blood/orange colour over the bay, really low at about 11.30pm.
