| Remarks | I was out at Binbrook conservation area, which is the Hamilton Amateur Astronomers' dark sky observing site, imaging with a longer focal length scope. There was a lot of dew, and I had a Rokinon 14mm and NIKON D5200 running at 1600 ISO snapping 5s wide angle exposures without a dew heater, so the lens was fogged over. I saw an amazing fireball, and when I later checked the camera, this is what it had picked up. |
