Details:
"One month ago - November 9-October 31 - I had a trip to Gandom Beryan, Kerman. I saw a very close meteor right after sunset (almost clear sky) gave me an unforgettable experience.
Fortunately, the camera was on a tripod and I was able to take a picture of it; But not with perfect settings.
The color change of the flame of the main core could be observed and even the sound of its movement and burning could be heard. As well as the pieces that were separated from it. You can see it in the attached photo. I estimated about 100 degrees from the moment I saw it until it disappeared, but it was definitely more. Considering that it passed under the moon, it can be said that the brightness was brighter than the moon.
The direction was from east to west, a few nights after the peak of Orionid meteor shower.
After it disappeared, a sound similar to thunder was heard, and due to the clouds on the horizon, it was not certain whether the sound was the result of hitting the mountains in the northeast and east of Kerman city or lightning.
It should be mentioned that the residents of Shahdad also observed it. Also, when I returned to Kerman the next day, they said that there was a sound yesterday evening that caused the windows to shake.
Canon 6DII, 24mm at f/11 1/13 sec at ISO 200
