General rule of thumb in these cases is... If you can see your feet.. It's the wrong direction

Re: Shooting stars tonight (Sunday)
Chances of seeing shooting stars will be low now, ISS visible again tonight for approx 5 mins
Wed Aug 15/09:35 PM
Visible for 5mins
Max elevation31˚
Appears 10˚ above W
Disappears 14˚ above SE
From Accy thats roughly appearing from Intack heading towards Rising Bridge
Is it worth getting the camera out
Can't see 700mm getting too close to it and when its travelling 17500mph
