I did the same. My girlfriend and I froze. But she was a trooper. I didn't see a single one.When is this thing supposed to happen? I'm on Central time and I just went out at 1:30 and saw nothing!
I called it a night, I froze my man parts off for a good 45 minutes. 15 degrees but feels like 1 degree according to weather.com.
I saw 5 of them and caught 0 on camera. Each time they were right behind me. But 5 meteorites in 45 minutes isn't as extravagant as they made it out to be.
Which direction were you facing? I read the majority will be from the northeast and I'm wondering how accurate that was. (By the way I'm about to go out and try my luck. I'm in California)

No worries, I didn't actually go try it. Was frustrated with the motion blur of the stars at 30 sec. in my test shots & decided to wait until the next shower when I can lock it open for several minutes allowing the stars to streak across the sky a bit and capture multiple meteors too. I might have tried anyway but was frustrated because it was a very long day, very cold outside, and very early in the morning. 2 hours of sleep wasn't gunna cut it for me.
Hope you caught it! Be sure to post it if you did.I lasted 45 minutes. It was very cold and I saw only four meteors. I might have captured one but my batteries wore out while I was transferring them to my computer. I'll look at them later.
Too long exposure. Some movement in the starswhen spring comes we should have a big outing and we all head out to capture shooting stars on the same night, report back in the morning with our best shots and techniques we used.
Good job c...something, forgot the name now....is it out of focus though? or some movement. Nice job catching an elusive meteor, only one in the thread that got one!
