About this image

During the early part of the night I was plagued (yet again) with clouds and watery sky transparency. Things improved nearer 1am. My RMS cameras gave these composite images (my UFO Capture cameras also detected hundreds of meteors).

The majority of these streaks are Perseids, although a number of minor showers are also active at this time.
