| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | It is unfortunate the entire meteor didn't stay in the frame but I thought this worthy of note as the preceding and following frames show dark sky conditions, and in this frame the meteor was bright enough to brighten the sky quite significantly. I shot 8 seconds exposures at a 10 second interval from midnight to 5am local time. This is the brightest meteor I've photographed by orders of magnitude. |
