Gone now though...Dave C Glad I took my machine for a fly yesterday Dave. Was perfect. Got a good hour in. Probably the last chance now before I come to Australia for Christmas looking at the weather... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Darren Masters Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 Did anyone see it in Aus? I totally forgot about it and did not even get up. Was apparently visible for a short time over Auckland then it clouded over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DWB Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Could've if I woke up. I woke at 4.00 to see a bright moon shining through a bit of wispy cloud into the bedroom. Oh well I saw the previous one anyway.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Glenn Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 was working and thought of it a couple times but we were so busy that I didn't get a chance to take a look, although it was cloudy here. Forgot to look again when I got home about 3:30am too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red750 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 I had a camera club awards and Christmas function at 8pm last night. It had already been raining before I left home, many arrived quite wet through. Still raining when we finished at 10:45. Club members had intended to photograph the event. Heavy downpour through the night, still raining at 8:00 am today. Break in the clouds about 2:00pm. Oh well, better luck in 2014. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DavidH10 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Thanks for posting the photos Dazza. Was heavy cloud, rain and thunder storms were I am, so it was totally obscured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
