About this image

It has taken me a couple of days to process this data (with grateful thanks to Geof Lewis for reworking and improving my IR image from my raw data). The Jet stream had moved overhead so I had no great expectations but managed a very brief twilight session with IR and RGB with steady conditions before clouds moved in. I will post an IR-RGB combination separately.
