today was a very beautiful day, without clouds a little windy, 5 degrees celcius a little cold on the other hand.

It didn't tell me to take out my lunt. {laziness, that’s all}
but when I read your thread, the feeling of missing something beautiful and spectacular took hold of me.
I finally took out my equipment.
what I saw is the same as your screenshot photo.

It was a very good decision, the show was simply breathtaking.
This sight filled me with gratitude.
I would like to say a big THANK YOU Greg.
I would have missed something without your thread.
