Be alert for Taurid Fireballs this week

All you celestial Pentaxians - especially you K-3II users. There's a few days left. Get that Astro Tracer running

I saw one of these bright ones while trying to shoot an aurora...
Unfortunately my camera was pointed the other way.
Then I saw a more 'regular' meteor which started just as the frame ended

Also current Aurora alert (would that be an awesome shot? Aurora and Taurid):

The other night when I was in my observatory using my 16" telescope, I saw a few; a couple were very bright.
