Pic du Midi de Bigorre

The Pic du Midi de Bigorre or simply Pic du Midi (altitude 2,877 m (9,439 ft)) is a mountain in the French Pyrenees famous for its astronomical observatory.

Because there was a severe snow storm thay night, the sky was very overcast - but I was lucky to get a tiny gap in the clouds at about 3.00 a.m.

............ so "The Sky at Night"
