This is just to give you adequate notice that the Leonids meteor shower is expected to peak the evening/morning of the 16th/17th, just a few nights away. While it is not forecast to be a significant one this time around, it has a tendency to be a decent display, so go for it.
Just to let you know, pictured is not Leo, but Orion, and not a meteor, but a plane of course. I have no worthwhile pics of a Leonid meteor, or indeed any, and not from being lazy. But we needed something here to capture your attention, and I just got this shot recently. Rest assured, if I get a decent image of a meteor, you will not only know about it, but I will be celebrating this long overdue event, a cake and a DJ and possibly a trained elephant. Don’t get me started…
