Dear all
Today observed Iridium 57. It appeared sharp at predicted time. But  1. It
appeared at about 80 deg. Azimuth against predicted azimuth of 102 deg for
my site. The altitude was correct.      2. The brightness appeared to be
about -4 to -5 as against the prediction of -8.
The appearance was for just 5 sec. I will let you know the results of my
photograph tomorrow. For me it appeared little reddish.
Clear skies
