Hi Tony, I was testing out a new wide angle lens last night. I was shooting the moonlit starscapes over a derelict building on Glenshane Pass during cold frosty night when this bright Taurid meteor shot through my frame!. I observed 5 Taurids during the session and one Taurid fireball to the NE. This was approx 02.00 UT - the lens is now broken in!

Canon 450D 10-22mm lens at 10mm, ISO1600
