As I mentioned with my time-lapse video share yesterday, the earth passes through the comet debris that causes the Perseid meteor shower for a few weeks, but the activity peaks around the night of August 12-13. The meteor activity is high for a while on either side of the peak so it can be productive to look in the August 11-14 timeframe.

Perseid Meteor Shower Composite, 2013
I’m still working on my images from the Camelopardalid meteor shower last night. So in the meantime to kill some time while last night’s images process, I produced this composite image showing 40 meteors from 4 hours of the Perseid meteor shower early in the morning of August 12, 2013.
These meteors appear in my time-lapse video of the 2013 Perseid Meteor shower on YouTube:
Here’s the rest of my Astrophotography album on G+ so far:
