| ->> I saw a few. And they are supposed to be getting more frequent but I'm calling it a night. Most of them were too dim to register on a long exposure. Of course the ones that were serious heaters happened when I wasn't exposing. Hope someone gets a good shot! |

->> Drove an hour from my house into an area where there was very little noise pollution. When I left, the skies were clear...
I brought my wife, we found a corn field, hopped a fence, threw a sleeping bag onto the ground and laid on our backs staring at the skies like kids! It clouded over a bit, and my photos were not that great, but who cares! It was one of the best nights I've spent with my wife in a while! |

->> I couldn't see the sky AT ALL last night, We were completely socked in. it was like pea soup. It burned off about an hour or two ago.
That photo of the observatory was beautiful. The only time I have seen the sky that clearly was in Death Valley. Thanks for that Lane! |
