Nicely caught and a great idea, well done.
Well I counted 9 and if thats correct, it's 9 more than what I seen over 3 nights.

Thks Tony. I had it running last night & got something like another 12.. 1 or 2 quite bright. I guess absence of moon & clear sky helped...

Yep sorry that was me... I only have limited space available (50Mb I think) provided free of charge to me by my ISP as part of my broadband package. When I tried uploading my latest pictures yesterday I kept getting error messages so I decided to try & delete some files to free up space & it worked. Unfortunately, the comet animation image was one of the largest files.... I will try uploading it again today.. maybe it will take it.

I guess I need to look at paying someone to give me more space...:-(

Sorry,  John

You also have space on the OAS gallery...

JohnP

This is true - thks Rick - I can upload to there....

Just looked at ezpz hosting - very reasonable price & seem to offer a good service judging by OAS forum...
