| Name | Lori G |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I have seen a shooting star before, but this was a bigger ball of light that fizzled out. I am guessing on the time because I know it was after sunset 8:10 pm, which as a photographer I am always checking the time of, I was talking with friends from the photo shoot and we chatted well after sunset and it got dark. Two of us saw it. We left the area around 8:50 pm, so we saw it between 8:10 and 8:50, but it was probably midway through our conversation. |
