Perseid meteor shower 2016
I’ve been chasing every meteor shower that I could see with my camera since 2009. This year’s Perseid meteor shower was one of the best I’ve experienced so far.
These are composite images, where I’ve saved the brighter meteors where they occurred in the sky, then brought those into one image showing dozens of them.
I also produced a time-lapse video that shows the hours of meteors falling. The conversion to video effectively speed up the meteor shower, enabling it to be seen in a few seconds.
The brief flashes are the meteors, the longest streaks that take the most time are airplanes. When you what what looks like smoke after the brightest meteors, that’s known as a “persistent train”.
The night before peak was pretty good too!

Nice! There are obviously some non perseids in there too! ๐
Yes, there are at least four active showers at this time, but three of them are minor in comparison to the Perseids.
Peras a la crena
Great shots. It's good that you had clear skies.
Very cool!
