Comments: See Web Site for complete information at; http://www.qsl.net/w7ftt/98leonid1.html The below picture showing the Little Dipper to the lower left, and the Big Dipper on its handle to the right center was taken at 0952 Z for 9 minutes. A Pentax K-1000 was used with a 28mm wide angle Tamron lens set at f/2.5. There are a total of seven meteors on this frame, with the upper left one being about -2, and the upper center right one about -3 magnitude. I was looking at the Big Dipper when the -3 magnitude meteor flashed. There are also the blinking lights of some aircraft from the upper left to the lower right. Can you find all seven meteors? |
