he sky is the limit. Generally, I work with stars in the cold but clear winter months, when the night starts sooner and lasts longer. However, the predication of a meteor shower last Friday had me out late at Maple Leaf Lake looking up. I did not see a single meteoroid entering the atmosphere, but did make this successful image from an exposure set that began before sunset and lasted several hours. Such a result encourages more warm weather night engagements, next time better prepared with insect repellent.
