This is a composite
image made from a video allsky camera. It records 96 Perseid
meteors on the peak evening of August 12. All non-Perseids
have been removed from the image. The Moon has also been
removed. The plotted data shows the frequency of events,
and clearly records the predicted UT 08:00 outburst of activity.

A composite photograph shows a flurry of 18 Perseid meteors captured in the morning hours during the peak period of this years Perdeids meteor shower. A total of 18 meteors were captured from 06:01:19 to 10:55:00 UT. Although competition from the Moon and a high level of light pollution limit the number of visible meteors, the composite image is still a remarkable reminder of the wonders that exist in the skies above! Photo details: 17 images composited on a frame captured at 04:07:28 local time. PC164C video camera, Swann 4mm f/1.2 lens, UFO Capture automated PC capture software. Composite image created in Adobe Photoshop CS.

I
caught 20 meteors with my camera and saw many many more.
I saw one fireball between 9 and 10pm but nearly all of
the meteors I caught were between 2 & 4 AM CT so the forecast
of the 1610 meteor streaming impacting around that time
seemed to verify.
