i observed the highest clouds in earth's atmosphere last night at around midnight.

I was heading of to bed , absolutely shattered and had a look outside my bedroom window.

The window faces north and i noticed some silvery blue clouds sitting in the north , i snapped

this image with my digital camera :-

Very nice Calum, well captured :D

I'm often up at that time and I never really look outside, I certainly will now though.

observed, like before i couldn't be bothered to venture out and get some

shots!! Glad you did Calum as it was quite another good show... nice one :D .
