Just 3 Persieds.

Sitting and facing in a direction opposite to where the camera is pointing is a guarantee for me anyway for a failure to capture anything of significance especially when meteors are involved. A beautiful evening spent on the sun lounger I saw some really bright meteors  and a few really bright ones streaking through the Andromeda region and going south. The camera however  was under our pergola and left overnight to see what it could find.(covered jusy in case it rained) ISO 1600 and 20 second captures are the best my Canon can hope for without an excess of noise anyway. So here is the result a composite of 3 images with 3 faint streaks across the sky looking east.
