What a nice surprise!! Thanks for posting gang.... Doug's astrophotography shot at our mountain cabin during Perseids in August ... the next meteor shower is the Orionids on the nights of October 20-21, named for the constellation Orion, the hunter, which is notable for its three-star belt and for the Orion Nebula, which is visible below the belt as a hazy smudge of light. At its best, this shower produces perhaps 15-20 meteors per hour. The Moon is almost new, so it will be thin and too near the Sun to interfere with the shower.... ahhhhh the beauty of the night sky!!
