Details:
At first there was a lot of low fog coming in from the west (photo 1). So I thought staying out to spot some geminids was out of the question. After making myself a warm cup of tea I went back outside to give it a try.
It took a while but then I cought a couple small ones, not very bright. The first one is a bit to the left from Jupiter. (photo 2). The second one is on the right side, just above that sensor smudge. (photo 3).
I saw a really bright meteor shooting from the right of Orion but my 50mm lens was pointed at Gemini.
Hopefully higher rates in the upcoming days. But to be honest, my cats were with me outside and I took some time to play with them so I might have missed
a few!
