Juan Carlos
Casado, Cape Creus, Spain Nov. 19 |
#1, more | J. Carlos Casado combined 30 one-minute exposures to create this extraordinary image. "A fisheye lens was oriented toward Leo," explains Casado. "Jupiter is the brilliant central dot. The observing site was the Cape Creus Nature Park--the most eastern point on the Iberian peninsula. The Mediterranean sea can be seen in the background. My wife, Isabel Graboleda, helped me capture these exposures. Also note our dog, Leica, in the foreground watching the show." |

Sanders, Lafayette, CA Nov. 19 |
#1 | W. Sanders: "This was my first effort photographing meteors. I used Fuji 400 film at f2.8 (24mm lens) and 1 to 3 minute exposures, which was too much exposure for the moonlight. This photo is a composite of two. The meteor behind the tree was really bright and lumpy." |

Gordon
Fritz, Beaufort, South Carolina, USA Nov. 19 |
#1 | G. Fritz: "The bright moon obliterated most of the weaker meteors but the large ones were very impressive and numerous. This one was much longer than is recorded on the 400ie FujiFilm with a Nikon F3, 24mm lens open at f2.8 for one minute." |
