Very good Paul. You either have steadier hands than me or rested your camera on something. Wink

I like the first one best. Very unusual.

PS. I can't see Mars even with my specs on. Someone must have moved it. Cheesy

Hi Doug...Grin...!

I managed to take the first shot by holding the camera very still to allow for the longer exposure time and also for the time it takes for the camera to process the shot....(and my batteries were a bit on the low side!)...

The second shot, because it was zoomed, I had to rest the camera against the back door-jam to obtain a reasonably sharp photo.
Idealy, it would have been necessary to use the tripod to take a photo at night, but I couldn't be arsed to set it up outside in the garden, in the freezing flippin' cold, (very high pressure at the moment!)...LOL...!

...and no, Mr. Mars is still in the night sky, (but only when there are no clouds about)...LOL...!

Paul...Your Phantasic Photograper...  8)...!

It rather moves on its own; however, it's a faint pinpoint (in this px Roll Eyes) at about 4 o'clock. 8)

It's a tad chilly down here too but most of the trees still have their green leaves on. Very peculiar. Roll Eyes
