Description
On Halloween (Oct 31, 2007) two bright Iridium satellite flares (approx magnitude -8) were about 1 degree apart and about 12 seconds apart from my home west of Houston, TX. They were predicted by www.heavens-above.com . My Canon 20D with a 50mm lens was on a tripod, and the exposure was 27 seconds at f2.8 with ISO 400. The image is cropped and darkened.
