Dear Zs,
Dragged myself, wife and son out of bed at 02:00 this morning, filled the
thermos,
and set out for an 80km drive NE of Melbourne. Found a *very* quiet area
and
set up 2 OM-1s on tripods at about 03:40 to catch the Leonids. We had seen
a
couple of big streaks from the SUV before we actually arrived. Once our
eyes
were dark adapted the display was incredible and continued until about 05:00
when the light in the sky washed out most of the stars (along with the
meteors). I
don't know what the photographic results will be like, but the effort was
worth it
just for the event itself.
