The Dailylife Daughter #1 and Toots dragged me out to see the Perseid Meteor Shower last night.  It was a bust photographing the meteors, although we did see a few!  This animation shows something else, however: 1) you really need to pre-focus your lens!; and 2) a satellite!  That is the streak moving across the star field.  It looks like it is fast, like a meteor (less than half a second on most of them) but this animation is made from two 30 second exposures, so it wasn’t very fast at all.
