Details:
Saw 6 or 7 bright meteors last night. I was out several times, maybe a couple of hours total between 10:00 pm and 1:00 am. They were as bright as brightest star in the sky. One seemed to shed a few pieces. All were fairly short in length. I was in town with a murky sky to see through. Caught none of the bright ones in photos, 25 mm lens did not cover enough of the sky. Camera took several hundred photos on its own, 20 second exposures with 10 seconds between exposures. Hope someone in better location and with better lens got some good photos. It was best shower I've seen, and first time in many years I was actually able to see them with naked eye. Looks like I may have caught one meteor in this photo.
