yeah i was just thinking that....


alright everyone brainstorm....

Maybe 2 pictures......one of the sky and one to prove the second was taken in the same place.....using some sort of landmark....tree or whatever

yeah that sounds good to me... maybe still write riu or your sn just to be extra careful.

well go with that then

anyone going to do this?

haha stevie u shtole my idea lol

I'll try with my girls camera but its not that great so I might not even bother posting the pictures...

I will try it, but it is very cloudy right now and I may not get anything, plus I only have a 7.2 mp sony camera and can't increase exposure times so...

Well, this sucks. Cloudy and rainy. I did get to see it last year though, and holy shit it was amazing. I saw about 30 HUGE meteors that were so big you could see them streak across the sky for like 4-5 seconds, and all left a very long white vapor streak behind them. They were all coming in from the same direction. They were lit up all different colors white, blue, red, yellow. I wish I could have saw it this year! It is now 4am here and I am still checking a few times an hour to see if the cloud cover has cleared, but no dice yet...
