Hi Malcolm,
Our finest Leonid photo is now on our DMS FTP-site. The adress is:
ftp://ftp.strw.leidenunivdot nl/pub/betlem/Leonid_1996/Leo96191.gif
This site is also directly accessible from the DMS homepage.
Data are available from the homepage under Leonids 1996.
The pictures shows 2 Leonids near the polar star.

Malcolm, I will forward your request to Marco Langbroek who prepared
the paper on the Leonids.
Thanks for your comments!
