And his next name is............Sir Patrick Moore.
I noticed the star, was going to have a look on the net to see what it was, but don't need to now. First time to be able to see the stars for days, with all the rain.

they say if you use a camera to take a pic you sometimes grab the moonbow (like rainbow) but colours too faint for a human eye.

Got a sulphur coloured halo around the moon here, looks well weird. Its not really a halo, just the way the thin clouds are making it look.

Ha ha, I was out doing just that as you were posting. The pics dont show the Halo. I wasn't going to bother posting them up, but I'll try and put the best one up.

With a bit of colour enhancement it would look quite good. Its not so grainy at half the size, but then the star/planet starts to disappear.
