Totally blew it. Waited ages for a nice big one, and when it streaked over in front of the camera I fumbled the remote button and missed it!

I set up for a prolonged wait, then decided to let the camera do the work! Phone connected to camera, Triggertrap App running the show.
Shame I didn't catch anything worthwhile, so I made it into a timelapse.

Not done via WiFi. Although I do use my phone as a remote, for this, I used Triggertrap on my phone which connects via a wire to the remote socket on the camera. The app allows me to set everything, including the interval between shots. Last night was 1000ISO, 30 seconds f4. One shot every 45 seconds until the cloud stopped play.
