Hello! On the night of May 6-7, 2019 (by local time, in Primorsky Krai of Russia), near city Nakhodka, I observed the maximum activity of the Eta Aquariid meteor shower. In two hours of observations, I saw 10 meteors, of which 7 belonged to this meteor shower. When the sky was already light (the Sun was about 9 degrees below the horizon), I decided to take a photo of myself against the background of stars. I took this photo on May 06, 2019 (at 19:04 UTC), with my camera Canon EOS 60D, on a tripod (ISO-1000, exposure time 8 seconds, f/3.5, 18 mm).I thought that in the photo would be visible: the stars, the sea, the ship and houses on the coast of the Sea of Japan, but I was very surprised to see this beautiful and bright meteor in the photo. Best regards, Filipp Romanov (22 years old), amateur astronomer.
