So did anyone catch Geminids shower? 

 

I woke a little late yesterday and this morning. This morning looked more 

promising out this way. I would have liked to put my 450D on the EQ5 and 

tried for a long exposure. 

 

Cheers,CS

The Geminid meteor shower peaks on the 13th and 14th of Dec.
The radiant is near Castor and it transits at about 3am DST at an altitude of 
30 deg.
It looks like it might be clear tonight.
The Moon sets at about 11:35pm and twilight starts at 4:10am tonight.
