Photos by Roger Herzler (such as they are)
Well, what can I say. I am disappointed that I didn't get better images, but oh well, you can still see the streak of the meteors. For all of these pictures I used a Pentax K-2 camera, 50mm lens at f/1.7 with Kodak Royal Gold 400 ASA film. The high cirrus cloud didn't help, but here are some things I would do differently:
On the bright side, this is the first experiment with star trails at 400 ASA, and it worked pretty well. next time out I'll try star trails at 200 ASA and 100 ASA to get that grain down to perfection. |
