Had another play at full moon last night, this time looking north-east over the roof of the house.

Tried some new settings: 15sec exp, f6.3, ISO 800, taken in continuous shooting, liveview 'silent mode'.
A little dark, f5 may have been better. the flv turned out even darker still, check the single image attachment for comparison.

At about a third of the way through a streak is seen moving east-west to left side of screen.
Not easy to see the details in the flv but it starts at the roofline, makes two rapid zigzags left and continues on toward the tree at left.
Very strange, and in the sky for 4 minutes total.
...Oh and there's a plane at the end of it too.
