#1 | K. Pascual: "Skies were mostly cloudy during the night, however, I managed to capture this meteor around 4:30 am MST just before the hole in the clouds closed. Details: 10 second exposure, using a 28 mm lens, taken Nov 19, 2002 using Kodak MAX 400. " |

#1, #2, #3, #4, more | T. V'Soske: "These images were captured near Anza-Borrego Desert State Park in east San Diego County. Fuji Provia 400/F slide film was used with 2-min exposures and a variety of Canon & Olympus lenses - all at f/2.8. The blazing moon overpowered many of this year's Leonids. Still, it was a wonderful show, with a few meteors actually appearing on film! " |

listen, look | R. Allen: "This is a recording of a television video signal at 55.24 MHz reflected from a Leonid meteor. The Doppler shift is caused by the fast moving reflection ionization produced by the meteor. The spectrum plot shows this clearly." |

#1 | M. Holloway: "This northern cross is a plane moving from right to left and a small meteor crossing in the North sky. I used a 35mm using a 40mm lense at F5.7. I didn't have a lot of luck with the 800 ISO film picking up the shower with the full moon. " |
