Orion Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Captured a few beautiful Perseids with my Canon 1100d, fixed tripod. 18mm. I saw this Perseid and was brighter than Jupiter. I would go as far as saying, Venus brightness. Time 02:25 BST 13/8. I was able to run the radio setup from 12/13th Aug, which showed some echoes, though there is not always correlation with optical or visual detection because the ones detected by radio might be outside the UK (I think - e.g. nearer France) . I've not yet got round to looking at the optical and radio data together (too much to do). I managed to get a pic on BBC East Midlands weather on Monday night, but I missed it.
