Clouds cleared about 11 pm last night but from my preferred location ( back steps ) the dang thing was behind a big Macrocarpa Tree.
Took a few shots through the office window with the 300mm on the SONY at ISO 2500 and 10 secs. It certainly appears but still in the soup, no detail and a bit of trailing. A wider feild might do better but would also pick up all the street lights just below, it's bad enough with all the LP at that dec. By the time it clears the tree and gets some altitude on it it's already dawn.
At least I can say I saw and I shot it
