Nice!
Couldn't see a thing in Melbourne tonight with all the smoke haze. Had dinner at the top of Mt. Dandenong, but even there we were at the top of the smoke haze but with high clouds above.

Very nice, Big V! I had a look tonight with my binos and decided that I'll give it a shoot tomorrow (16th), weather permitting.
Which 400mm lens did you use? Most pictures I've seen have been exposed in the 1-2 sec range. Does yours fall into that bracket, too?
Cheers
Steffen.
