I was out all lastnight, saw about 4 Leonids and a heap of Satellites, and quite a few sporadic meteors also. I was using a 50mm f1.8 lens on my canon 400D so quite a tight crop... Here is a small timelapse video. watch for the little flasher
"The Leonids is one of the better meteor showers to observe, producing an average of 40 meteors per hour at their peak. The shower itself has a cyclic peak year every 33 years where hundreds of meteors can be seen each hour. The last of these occurred in 2001. The shower usually peaks on November 17, but you may see some meteors from November 13 - 20. This year there may actually be two separate peaks, one on Saturday morning the 17th, and another on Tuesday morning the 20th. Some predictions estimate that the November 20 peak may actually be better than the 17th. The crescent moon will set early in the evening leaving dark skies for what should be an excellent show. Look for the shower radiating from the constellation Leo after midnight, and be sure to find a dark location for viewing."
