Details:
Taken at 4:01AM, looking west, 30 miles west of Cody, Wyoming. This estimated brighter than -2 magnitude Perseid was recorded during a break in the quarter moon lit clouds. The terminal burst was able to illuminate the cloud even more than the moon could.
I slept through this morning's event because clouds were too problematic and watching during a brief clear period before moon rise suggested activity was much less than the previous 24 hours despite Bortle 1 skies.
Nikon d7100, Nikkor 35mm f/1.4 @ f/2, iso 3200, 14s.
