PhotographerJohn LairdLocationOnyx Summit, Big Bear, California, USADateSept. 1, 2007, 4:15 a.m.EquipmentCanon 10D on tripod, 17 - 35mm lense at 17mm, f2.8 aperature, 20 sec. exposure, iso 800DescriptionI observed the Aurigid Shower last night at Onyx Summit above Big Bear, off Hwy. 38. Caught this meteor going just below the constellation Orion. I observed for a couple of hours. During the best hour from about 4 to 5 a.m. we saw about 35 meteors with a couple of outbursts of 4 to 5 a minute. It was short, but awesome. |

The darkest and most red eclipse I've seen in the last 20 odd years. It will be interesting to learn if other east coast observers have similar comments and if they differ from the west coast views. |
