I stayed up to look for a few meteors. The night was quite pleasant with a soft breeze in St. Mary's County. Having no idea where to point my wide angle lens, I was taking a photo when I noticed a bright meteor a little more over to my left. It wasn't in the frame, unfortunately. Fortunately, it was close to the Milky Way, and that would make a nice photo. So, I moved the camera over and took some more photos. I didn't see any more, although I thought I saw some out of my peripheral vision. After looking at the back of my camera today, I could barely make out a small meteor just above the trees to the left of center in one photo. I don't do much night photography, so I don't own a good wide bright lens for thousands of dollars, so I just tried it out with what I have and the stars blurred a little.
For photo geeks here were my settings ISO 2000 21 mm f/6.3 30 seconds
