It was a spectacular display of the Perseids last night – and unbelievably the persistent thin high cloud disappeared shortly after 11 p.m. leaving completely clear skies – and after 12:30 a.m. they were Moonless skies as well! Out of 220 images taken with the Canon 5D MkII and Canon 15mm fisheye lens, 27 images had meteors – and the colourful Perseid below was the best image of the evening. Possibly the best Perseid evening I have ever witnessed.
