I managed to get some for a while anyway. Here in Maryland it got socked in completely at about 5 AM but it was shootable up till then. Had my big motor driven equatorial mount out with a dovetail plate holding a Kiev 60 mounting the Arsat 30/3.5 Fisheye and a Super A mounting a Sigma 21-35/3.5-4 set at 21mm. Got 6 5-10 minute shots with the 6x6 and about the same with the Super A. Used Superia X-tra 800 in the Pentax and NPL 160 in the Kiev. Once I get them developed I'll scan them on my Epson 1200U and post a few if enough meteors showed up. Kent Gittings
