The germinid meteor shower is tonight and tomorrow..it'll be cold a dark but could give you some great photos. Some tips for capturing the meteors can be found here http://noelchenier.blogspot.ca/2012/11/the-awesome-gemenid-meteor-shower.html I'm hoping to get out and have a go. Steve...
Again tonight, full cloud cover, not a star in sight, even the specialist dark sky sites are unable to see Ahh well always 2013 if we survive 21st Jack McH
Went out at midnight and there was a clear view of Gemini, with a few low clouds wisping around North. I saw a couple of meteors low down on the southern horizon but didn't capture any with my camera setup as per Steve's link in post#1, I think there is just too much light pollution in my back gareden. PS: Am I allowed to say Pollux ?
Yep, and Castor Only saw a couple myself, the whole experience being marred by next doors halogen constantly switching on and off.
