At the opposite end of the scale I had a lovely time yesterday evening pushing my daughters on the swings just after sunset. Venus was as bright as a planet can be, just off the crescent moon. As I was telling my kids what the "star" was, the mum attending to the toddler in the next swing couldn't believe it - she didn't realise you could see planets! It's so nice to spread the astronomy wonder.
Cracking photos. Very impressive.
