    There's blue sky here with some cloud now and it's hazy. If it stays like this, there would be a better view but thick cloud is forecast for around the optimum time of 9.30am here in Liverpool. It will be interesting listening to the second Dawn Chorus though. :heehee:

        Cloud and fog here, not much chance of seeing it. I'm still looking forward to the surreal atmosphere when it goes dark and the birds stop singing.

                  The seagulls sitting on the roof of the storage warehouse in a row near me are looking a bit confused and flapping around a bit!

                  8:50am. Cloudy here, so not seeing much at the moment.

                  Not to be defeated though, I'm doing a bit of simple science.

                  I'm recording the outside temperature shown by my weather station at half hourly intervals, to see if there's a noticeable drop and I've set up the camera pointing down the garden, with the aperture and shutter speed on fixed settings. I'm going to take a sequence of pictures and see how they compare.

                      Even though it's clouded over somewhat,the light has altered and the temperature has dropped 1 degree in 15 minutes...
