you take beautiful pictures! i was really hoping to take pictures of the perseids. i was in the Kooteney Rockies at the time, but we were in a high, narrow valley and i didn’t have as much wide open space at i thought. when you take pictures of the night sky, do you use film or digital? i like using film, but digital is easier to access as my darkroom days are currently numbered.
i’ll try again with the leonids. last year i captured a satellite, but no meteors.
Andromeda – thanks! I shoot digital only now. I still have a lovely film camera, but my mastery in digital post processing far outstrips anything I could do in film these days. You can see other astro photo attempts of mine (comets, space station/space shuttle tandem, eclipse) here: http://jenyu.net/photo/category/astro/
