Oh lucky you.
We haven't even had a decent storm this summer
Ditto and thunder and lightening
if it goes like last night, you might yet be in luck... cloudy here till just after 2200, when it cleared up almost miraculously
will have a bash tonight- can I ask why so many f2.8's and f4's etc as I would have thought f8-f16 for distance or am I thinking incorrectly for 'space'?
Looks really cloudy here :-(
Just been out the back of the house into the field and it's crystal clear with a zillion stars.
Might set the camera up but I've no idea where I should be looking or what speed these things are likely to cross the sky ?
Should I just focus to infinity at the North Star - fairly wide or what ?
Is it case of a longish exposure and hope something comes into frame ?
It looks like it will remain so for the rest of the night. The weather forecast is a bit poor..

You need to look about 45 degrees above the horizon to the east/north east.
That's good then as I have an interupted view looking North East.
Wispy clouds have come in since I was outside but have got the gear set up in case it clears again.
Did somebody say infinity/f4/20sec as a starting point ?
