    ###### If ADMIN are watching the Site??#####  i have tried to Normalise my [NAME] …  [To Stan Armstrong]..  but am guessing that as ‘THAT’ is the Lynchpin of my Records.. It is a Forbidden Entry?  Be that as it may..

    Hi Mike…Thought i would confirm your June 6th Sightings.. someof which were certainly of the magnitude order of Venus.. but with the reservation that the objects were actually successively in a more Northerly position..  I will Dig out a Shot later after a Bite to eat.

    We would like to show you a description here but the site won’t allow us.

    Could a later extract possibly refer to a generic Issue?   

     

      ”   Useful ING Internet Addresses for INT Observers . It may occur while you are observing that you cannot access to common user INT web pages (even when Internet is working properly).”  

     I should mention that due to my Arthritic fingers I only use Desktop PCs.. Hope this helps.

    On original reading Dominic  i assumed a costly academic set up, hence delighted to read now it was a ‘ cheap zoom CCTV lens’ . I vaguely remember mentioning having similar problems with the dominance being a North to South changeover in View. Recently with the Cooler evenings it would seem that Temperature may well be affecting my images too. I like the idea of your graphic representation of the issue, althoughin my case there is no easy access to the Lens. Will be interested to follow your progress.  

    regards Stan.

    The simplicity of Instructions were such that I could not resist the challenge.

    Despite my clarity of vision with Cataracts removed and 10×50 Bresser.. I did not visually see Comet at all.

    The Comet’s position was on other side of Valley.. above the Trees of The Golf Club..##

    The Golf Club keeps it’s Lighting System in Partial ON mode thruthe Night.. to faciliate the fascinating Crawler ‘Tidy up and Recharge’ after the Golfers have gone home. The resultant view of the Range is shown..##

    I knew the Comet would be rising from Total Darkness of the Golf Club Trees.

    The ratio of B/W was huge. However.. The Roof camera was Teased to show the Comet peeping thru the Silhouette Crater Tail first. Obviously attempted traditional ‘Drawback to a Frame’

    but had to settle for this..##

    Pity I never swotted Photoshop as have lots of Wide Nightview shots across valley..

    Thus my shots are ‘Of the moment’..

    A week ago i wrote the following on the Facebook visitors page..

    • …’Americo Watkins asked about a ‘Previous fireball’ to the Exploding one. If he gives me the time and date I will see if i have anything.. Further..’mike.german’ ..the disappearance of Power and Doppler in your graphs..is with the Eye of Faith..to be seen in the video track in attached shot’. My guess is that few members would expect to receive information via this method?
      I Attach a frame from my video of the event..and as my location is ‘Lngtde Offset’ from Nick and Eric hopefully this will help the accuracy of the path..
      I usually monitor UK Met on twitter for daily meteor mentions and IMO for others.. If Eric let’s me know time date of his previous interest Meteor I will see if i captured it too.. Apols for lack of immediate clarity but thought to Real time my input.
