Very
bright noctilucent clouds. Looked like full moon behind
the clouds. Bright enough for the notoriously poor low light
auto focus of my Olympus 8080 to work (it usually can't
get a focus lock on a full moon). Looking north. |

A
fantastic Noctilucent cloud display, very strong with different
shapes and structures. I captured these photos with my Canon
DSLR. |

I
saw these bright clouds while waiting for very bright Iridium
flare (about -8 mag). Too bad I couldn't go out to find
better place to take photos. The display lasted for only
1 hour.

The
clouds were bright enough to see them right out from the
computer room located below the observatory dome.

This
NLC display was the biggest I have ever seen in my life!
They climbed rapidly over head, showing no respect for the
zenith until they were 160* high and in the SE near the
moon. The 7 sisters were an exqusite sight against a background
of undulating NLC blue velvet. At one stage I could see
the shape of two silver stallions galloping side by side..unforgettable! |

Another
sublime and beautiful display of Noctilucent Clouds is still
going on as I type. It's hard to tear myself away, but I've
got to get up for work in six hours! This has been the best
NLC season I can remember. Looking forward to finding out
more about these clouds when AIM goes up... |

The
Noctilunent clouds were moving faster than I have usually
seen them and remained visible for a short time after the
sun went down. This picture was taken just before Midnight
BST.
