GROUP METEOR SHOWER WATCHING!

1:40AM Eastern Standard Time

Post pictures and/or impressions here.

That means people with large fast digital slr's capable of large dynamic range. Like you nate. Carbon Fiber tripods recommended. Since this event also coincides with GIN HOUR (1AM EST), I would like to think of this as an evening party.

Most of you don't care, but when was the last time you stopped and smelled the roses? Or looked at the sky? In this day and age of computers and instant on demand high quality music/movies/tv, I think we all need to slow down and enjoy the natural wonders that have entertained and stupefied mankind for millenniums.

Dammit! I didn't see this thread. Oh well, I was fucking on hold with Verizon from 11:30 pm to 2 am last night until I gave up and went to bed.

I still remember seeing my first meteor shower. It was Nov 2001 and I was upstate at SUNY Albany. We were outside on the softball field at 4AM when we looked up and just saw orange rain in the sky. It was beautiful.
