Riste said: ‘The photo was taken at about 11:30 pm, before we ever photographed a meteor shower. We had to leave earlier because the moon rose at 12:15 and we only had 4 hours to enjoy the dark sky. We photographed for less than 2 hours and I can say that the highlight will be great. We saw more than 10 good meteors in less than an hour. ”

He wrote: “Encouraged by your articles, I thought I would try ‘astrophotography’ for the first time. Tried to catch a Perseid, but got this other meteor by the Big Bear. I also managed 2 other Perseids! Thank you, Phil! Maybe you know about the other meteor shower that runs at the same time as the Perseids? The meteors radiate from another part of the sky. The shower is called the Delta Aquariids.
Bottom line: Photos from the Perseid meteor shower in August 2020.
