Managed to catch a couple of Perseid meteors from my front yard- such as they are:

Nice pity about the powerlines running through

So, the top photo is the exposure 1/13 second at f/3.5 with the 8mm fisheye? Is that right? This computer I am on right now doesn't have a full-blown EXIF reader on it. What's the ISO level? I do not mind the power lines in the neighborhood view shot.

Wow, that EXIF reader is a little off. It was 30 seconds @ f3.5, ISO3200.

Gee, I could have hand-held some meteor shots, hahaha. I just happened to have the night off from work, so I set up two cameras outside the house. More than half the frames on the lower tripod (with the 8mm) were fogged over due to condensation- kept having to clean the front element.
