With Saturn season ending and Jupiter yet to climb up high and Lulin gone. I think I might post this image to a relatively quiet forum.
Taken several weeks ago. Canon 400d. 50mm at f/3.2 17sec. ISO 400 cropped.

It was -8 for only several seconds. -8 as predicted by heavens-above.com that was. Its prediction was always spot on, both location & timing. A great website I cannot do without.
