About forty minutes ago, this was the view from outside our kitchen door.

I was hoping to see the Sickle (in Leo, the Lion) -- the Moon is slinking past it tonight. But there are no stars in this picture; it was too early.

About five minutes later, though, the stars were out enough to recognise Regulus and the Sickle.

Then the clouds moved in hard. There's nothing to be seen now.
