About this image

There was a small patch of Noctilucent cloud seen here at Tarbatness last night (20190604) around local midnight. There was a lot of dark low slow moving tropospheric cloud on northern horizon and the patch, quite bright, was seen between these dark clouds.First display of 2019 for me.
