Yeh im keeping an eye on it... when ya look at it through the Bino's depending how good yours are... to the top left hand side almost touching the moon there is a cluster of stars (probly a galaxy). You cant actually see the dots it just looks like a little bit of a light (smuge on the lens). Have a look and see if ya can see it, or am i seeing things ?

I was looking at the moon earlyer on going 'thats strange, usually its shaded from the side.But Recieved a Phone call from my bro to tell me to go have a look. Awsome stuff, Got a few photos of it too. not as comprehensive as Gnomes :D But you get an idea of the colours you would have seen on the night here in Sale. Wich by the way was crystal clear.
