-8 Iridium 65 it's been a while.

Just captured the following photo, Iridium 65 -8 flare. It has been a while, good weather and a -8 at the same time. Exposure was 10 sec at f/2.6 iso 100.

Nice one Mick! I haven't been spotting Iridium's for ages, this might be enough to inspire me again!

I had a -8 lined up to spot on the weekend - we were 400m from centre, so of course we were going to stand on the spot to watch it..... but cloud cover ruined that....

Hi Lester,

The Exposure was 10 sec long and I missed a few seconds at the beginning, so the flare lasted about 15 sec.
