2012 Meteor Shower

August 11,2012 was supposed to be the most active meteor show this year.  Being the avid stargazer I am I had to try and capture this tremendous event to SD Card.  The biggest problem I face is the fact I live in a city (really big town) and it is hard to get to an area that isn't completely ruined with light pollution.  The solution: try to find someplace out of town that wouldn't get us arrested.  Did we succeed? Sorta.  Did I get the magic pic?  Yeah, Kinda.  But the experience was fun none-the-less.

Here are my best pics.

My only Meteorite

Took forever to capture this pic.  I saw many meteorites, but this was the only one I got a pic of.

The Big Dipper

This was just a pic of the constellation.  Nothing crazy.

The Towers

This was just a cool pic of towers.  We star gazed on the backside of the airport.  We only got in a little trouble when a security guard stopped because of our parked car. Cool pic though (That streak is an airplane)

METEORRR - wait, hellicopter

This was just another cool pic.  This of a helicopter from my back deck.
