    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.
