More excited to see the #moon again after all this cloud than the bonfire!

@cpl43uk Superb photo of the comet Chris

Tonight's attempt at #C2023A3 #comet - finally using scope in the back garden - just breasting the trees. Hardly any colour for me nor too much tail detail based on 20-30mins capture and a quick process #astro

@mars_stu My best shot of the #comet from Bristol.

Tonight looks like a good night to look for #Comet A3 from the UK, low in the W after sunset. Here's a v simple chart to show you where to look. But don't wait until the stars come out. After sunset, find Venus shining low in the SW then look to its upper right. Binocs will help.

My first view of the #comet Superb to see the nucleus and tail. Just visible naked eye, much better in binoculars.

Very red #northernlights glow here in Thornbury near Bristol.

@cpl43uk Stunning just stunning Chris...

Still keeping it zoomed in (with my set-up), short and #EAA - a 45 min total exposure of one of the main sections of the Cygnus Wall in #NGC7000 #caldwell20 - 15 mins in UVIR for the stars and 30 mins for the nebula #astro

Look at the colour of the #sun this evening. Beautiful.

Over the summer we're continuing to reach out to parents and carers to let them know about the food support available in #SouthGlos. Tomorrow we're at Juice in Cadbury Heath from 12pm.

Beautiful #Cirrus cloud ahead of the approaching low pressure system.

Enjoying the #Cricket at Trentbridge. Stokes batting.

The #moon looking very special this evening just after sunset.

@deepskymike We look after him from time to time. I think Twix is about 10 years old.

@mdstuart37 Lovely dog Mark how old is he?

A Twix look that says more than a 1000 words.

Here is another video with some spiral shaped organisms. They moved much faster. I think they are spirillium.

When your wife empties the water butt it's always fascinating to find out what is living in the water.

Lovely red glow with lines and green lower down. #NorthernLights

About 90 #sunspots today based on my rough count. Never seen it that busy in a long time.

@Petagna Reminds me of the low pressure systems on #thedayaftertommorrow

Very busy weather charts currently You may have heard of the phrase 'a family of depressions', well currently it's more a case of multiple generations of occluded fronts congregating..a very messy set up Showers or longer spells of rain..with some hill snow too

@sgloscouncil A more ecological option? swissinfo.ch/eng/banking-fi…

Our gritter salt comes from the Irish Salt Mining Company by boat to cut our carbon footprint- but how much do you think we will have used by the end of the season? There are 10 £25 book tokens to win if you get an icy grip on the answer. See more here: orlo.uk/Gritter_Compet…

@GJDonatiello Nice images. Just had a look at the 12p comet in my binoculars. Pretty easy to spot at the moment next to a triangle of stars.

The periodic comet 12P/Pons-Brooks taken this evening around 6pm UT, unfortunately now very low and immersed in an annoying haze and close to the branches of the surrounding trees. Approximately 1/4 FoV 200mm f/3.5, 20x13 seconds at 400 ISO. g (gas) and r (dust) split images.
