Reposted from a friend’s blog…

3 #Perseid #Meteors captured on camera last night out of almost 3,000 photos! Taken from #Oxfordshire. Canon 1100D with 18-55mm lens, ISO-1600, 8sec f/3.5 #Perseids2024 #MeteorShower #PerseidMeteors

Last night I headed out to the countryside for the Perseid meteor shower. It was quite a show. Saw some fireballs, gold and green ones. Managed to capture a few. Also captured the clear sky just because it looked so beautiful. The lights from cars coming in added some color to the frame.
