It's a nice moon tonight.
Northeast Englnd looking east from my back door.
It's still and I'd say about 9 degrees.
I see stratos, broken and lonely at about I'd say 6 thousand feet but the moon is so bright, really bright.
The clouds mean nothing to its majesty.
These nights.
No Moon for me, it's raining. :(
