    Method: Canon Digital Ixus 400 + ASTRORECORD astrometric software.
    Camera at manual mode, "10 second" (= 10.7 second) exposure, wide field

    Point #4 appears to be anomalous. 00-047A and 05-042A seen as well but trails 
    too marginal on the image.
    
    05-016A flared to mag 0 at 20:14:24 UTC (Aug 29). Following that it was bright 
    (up to +1.5) for some time, but notably irregular (this showing well on one of 
    the images too). Around 20:16:00 it grew fainter (mag. +3).
