Times based somewhere around Weybridge, Surrey, start, midpoint, and end times and angles. Use your judgement or enter your own location in the above site.

If you have a tripod and a dSLR handy, and of course clear skies, go outside and do your worst.

These are the times I wish I'd invested in a dSLR. Going to go outside with the S3 but it'll be a miracle of epic proportions if I get much.

The miracle. It happened. I didn't see it, but my trusty S3 did. I really could have done with at least 30s exposure though. Will try again. Hopefully if I can see it I can get the shutter timing right (I just kept on clicking for five minutes in the hope it might work).

Rest of this month's opportunities, based on my home address (should be visible from the whole of the UK weather permitting)
