Meteor
Taken by Jamie McHugh on April 1, 2014 @ As I was taking the shots, I noticed more stars were exposed, than were visible to the naked eye. So as an experiment I took a long exposure of a random part of the sky. Voila the out of the camera results. Looking at the same shot again, but with added fill light & exposure boosted, and boom!, check what's in the bottom left! I couldn't get a single shot of a meteor during the Leonids last year, and here I'm taking a random shot and there's one right there! What's quite interesting is that on 1:1 magnification, the light from the meteor's trail across the length of the exposure is actually displaying a notable progression of the spectrum of colours.
