I prefer shot 3 out of all of them Richard. How late in the evening did you take them?

Nicely done Richard, an area of photography ive yet to try.

Very interesting! I found that movement of planets and the moon very interesting to watch every night!

I often sit outside when its a warm evening. Watching the clouds go skudding across the sky, the stars twinkling against a dark background and the moon slowly travelling across the heavens. While I am sitting there I think to myself " I must put a roof on this outside toilet"

It was approx 8.50pm Ken.

Thank you for your kind comments.

Nice one Bazza!

Still no answer to my initial question, was really after some opinions, positive or negative.

I think I prefer shot one, it looks cleaner to me - though perhaps waiting until it was a bit darker and going for a slightly higher shutter speed might have helped? Just to get a bit more detail out?

Many thanks for the constructive advice Laura.
