Details:
A lucky first shot! Couldn't believe my luck as a brilliantly bright Geminid fireball streaked across my field of view whilst I took my first 20 second exposure! The meteor traversed just above the stars Alhena and Alnath. Taken with Sony A77 Mk 2 16mm @ F 2.8 20 second exposure @ ISO 800. In the second shot I have pushed the exposure settings to bring out the fireball more - the cloud formations add something to the shot, but thank goodness the street lights were off!
