2000/8/12 Quite a nice show. However I lost count because the aurora was quite distractive :-) One meteor was bright enough to cast our shadows on the wall. Among the 50 aurora photos I took, there are two with meteors in it:
A Perseid though the pink aurora. M45, Saturn, Jupiter, Taurus and Orion are visible. Fuji 800 negative film, 35mm/f2.8, 2 minute exposure, 2000/8/12 4:58 EDT
A faint Perseid through the aurora |
Enlarged portion, note the double flare at the end of the trail. |
Another faint Perseid through the aurora |
Enlarged portion, the faint meteor is the golden trail from upper right to bottom center. |
