Nice...
I went out around 2:00AM, drove over to my regular night sky spot in a large local cemetery and set up a couple cameras. It was so darn humid, sweat was pouring off me, the sky was hazy and fog kept forming on my lenses. I gave up, packed up and got back into my air conditioned car and drove back to my air conditioned house. Air conditioning, it's a wonderful thing...

I caught this meteor during set up from my deck early in the evening! I went back out from 3:30 AM to about 5 AM and only saw one which I did not capture!

Very nice Tom. I like that you captured some trees in the foreground. Pleasing perspective.

Farkle, the angle from the far end of my deck to get a North East view of the sky included the tree tops which I thought gave it a "from the deck" look and not a "in the middle of somewhere" look.
Thanks for your comment.

Thank you - can't wait for future meteor showers to practice.
