Departed ASSA member, Craig Richardson, took this photograph of an Iridium flare
(Iridium 62)
at 18:38 (local time) on 30 July 1998.
He used a 55mm f/1.8 Minolta lens with Kodak PPF400 film for the 30 second
exposure.
The star Arcturus is at the far left amongst the tree branches.
"The clouds parted just long enough for me to take the photo!", said Craig.
