Delta Aquirids Meteor Shower Attempt July 30, 2022


I stayed up late to photograph the Delta Aquirids Meteor Shower and apparently photographed an airplane.  I tried using a flashlight to light up the trees with my new used 2.8 20 mm lens.  I combined two photos that showed the same plane streaking across the sky to make this photo with the Milky Way.  I wasn't quite sure which direction to look in.   Photographed at ISO 2000 for 5 seconds.
