I'm at McDonald park right now, and the meteors are really flying now - about one every minute. A really mice guy let me piggy back my camera on his telescope tracker so I'm making 10 minute exposures! Hopefully, I'll get somethng good...I haven't gotten any good shots with meteors yet. :(

I spent 10mins standing in my backyard and I saw at least 2.

But the lights from Surrey is too bright that it blocked half of the sky

saw a whole bunch! just came home from richmond. haha it seemed to get pretty lively toward 4am and then it just kinda stopped?

post the picsssssssssssssssssssss

left at 12... the crowd at iona was lively but the cars constantly driving by was annoying...

fun night

My experience, you're better off with a wide angle to catch a larger area of the sky... even at 1/min, the odds of one hitting the tiny area of sky you're getting with 500mm are pretty remote.

Heck, last time I went shooting meteors, I was shooting at 17mm and still consistently missing them - wherever I pointed my camera, they'd always come down in the opposite quadrant. Move the camera around, they'd be in the quadrant I'd just left. :flamemad:

went with a bunch of friends last night to iona. We say quite a few - at least one every 2 minutes

So, me catching 2... Is lucky? Outta the whole night?. I was shooting at 18mm.

Depends on your exposure time... I was trying anything from 2 minutes to 10 minutes... or until I saw too many of them going by out of the camera view and got frustrated and swung it around :)

I'm going to point my 11mm up into the sky and see what I get :p

Lol I was reaching for my cell phone to take a pic. Then I realized what a stupid idea that was. :p

:lol I was watching at 3 Road and each time a meteor went by people sounded like they creamed themselves "oooOOHHHHH"

I heard a bunch of horses screaming.

Are the lambs still screaming, Clarice?

That, my friend, is a plane. :p

Did you walk to the east of the main parking lot to where the Fraser Valley Astronomy Society members were with their huge-ass telescopes? Much better lighting conditions there, but the sky sucked last night due to the smokey haze. The area near the parking lot was crappy because there were too many cars coming and going, and too many stupid people using flashlights with white light.

I was using a 15mm fisheye & a 24mm f1.4.

i didnt catch shit last night, I was too slow everytime!

i didn't catch shit last night as well cuz at 12:15am i went to sleep disappointed cuz i thought i missed it

That's why you use long exposures.

still waiting for Senna4ever's pics

Was up at Cypress last night.

Anyone see this really slow moving object that showed up at around 5am? It drifted not in a totally straight line and was up there for about 5-10 minutes. Definitely not a plane or a helicopter.

ufo!
