Milky Way—Meteor—Comet

On 10/20/2024 07:15 pm by John Ashley | Arivaca, Arizona, USA

You and I (and everyone else on Earth) safely passed through the trail of dust responsible for October's Leonid meteor shower. Unfortunately, moonlight drowned out most of the dim meteors. I saw a grand total of three meteors Sunday night in the 2.5 hour window between sunset and moonrise. This was the only meteor near Comet A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS.

Nikon Z9 with Rokinon 24mm lens.

Adobe Bridge and Photoshop. Removed trails from 23 satellites that were visible in the frame.
