Another one..
My problem was, I did not check where it was supposed to be last night, and I forgot maps at home in a hurry :mad2::ashamed:...
Still managed to catch her close to the edge of one frame (I took several in hope she will be in one of them)...
This is a single 5 sec exposure, ASA1600, 135mm@f5.6... no trace of tail.. well, just a hint....
Very difficult target indeed. Next time it will be better......

Well, at least you got it Bojan! :thumbsup: Hope you have better luck with your next go!

I had another go tonight but it was even worse than the last one I posted (& hence consigned to bin! :P). Imaging in the shadow of Mt Buffalo to the west did not help - probably lost 10 degrees of horizon there, and just too light. It's moving fairly fast. Fair bit higher than last time, but it is also dimming.

Cheers -
