Beautiful discs Stephane!! You have faithfully captured what I saw visually today if not a bit more!

What a beautiful serene rural observing site. Absolutely gorgeous! I bet the night skies look good there. Are those grapevines 🍇 along the fence?

I live in the French cereal region ("la Beauce"), the horizon is clear and if we move away from the cities (as it is my case :) ) : no more street lamps and a milky way which goes from one horizon to the other. The only small concern is during the period of the harvests where the atmosphere becomes less transparent ;)

Yes, these are indeed vines along the fence. Normally I will have grapes to taste in September! :)

cordially
