A late night was inevitable once clear skies were confirmed for the night of 11th / 12th July and I joined Dave C in a spot of Shropshire dark sky to enjoy this heavenly sight...
Taken with my 500mm lens plus 1.4 extender, it did the job for a close up although looking north, the sky never really went completely 'dark'...
Looking to the South, Jupiter (with four moons obvious) and Saturn were just too obliging to refuse!
It's going to be wait for more clear conditions now...
