Smithysteve Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 At last we've had the longest day! 😎 Light nights are on the wane! 👌 Before you know it, it will be dark at 4.30pm again. Yippee! So cheer up, the long dark nights are coming! 😄 BAZ and +TasKiNG 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tweedledee Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 While we are waiting for it, it would be nice to enjoy a bit of summer. Today wasn't bad for February. stash 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest peepshow Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Don't let the clouds know that, Stephen. They are nasty, spiteful creatures and will hover over your scope all next winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M. Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I hope it clears up soon! Not had the chance to really test my scope yet! Venus was bright in the sky the other day but it fell too low when it finally got dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the nasty clouds don't read your comments Richard! ðŸ˜Šâ˜ºï¸ Or they will hover over both our scopes 😇 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before I discovered filters, I often used sunglasses to view Venus and Jupiter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 My favourite time of year is late summer. In winter, I don't get so much chance to see the Sun. If it's dark around 9.30 I get to see the Sun and have some dark sky before bedtime, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M. Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 I keep looking at the sunset times, looking forward to the dark nights ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
