About this image

Very faint and difficult, and yet one of the brighter objects observed tonight. The observation may have been hampered by building thin, high, cloud. It appeared small, but larger with averted vision. Elongated, but otherwise bland. The cloud may have parted slightly as the object became visible to direct vision after a few minutes. It remained bland, however.
