2012 DA14 flyby on Sat morning

Any plans for this one?

I may try it from Johns Hill (Melbourne), with some wide angle lens and DSLR.
Should not be a problem - if weather permits.

I stayed in Melbourne..
This is the part result of the whole effort, I also made a video from original jpg frames (NEO passing through IC2602 and eta Carinae) but it is quite large (80MB), I still have to find the way how to shrink it to something more manageable, without compromising resolution.

Basically, I took 3 series of 10 sec exposures with Canon 400D and Canon 100mm FD lens (@F5.6), ISO800.

This one was done at ~4:30AM as the start of the first sequence.

Nice capture bojan,

It was quite faint and moving quite fast too.

Thanks for posting
