I'm headed out again tonight, and i'm going to try...

August 12, 2020 09:42AM
to catch one with video... on my iPhone so it won't be good resolution. There's probably a way to do it and have it come out great but I don't know the method.

I'll have to get lucky, of course. Actually I tried last night but didn't catch anything... pain in the butt to record then have to go delete so it doesn't eat up all my iPhone memory. BUT... last night I only tried at random times. They came in streaks last night, for the most part... so tonight I'll record when I notice a 'streak' beginning... hopefully that will work. As far as where to aim the phone -

That will take luck... BUT... last night they fell in a pretty consistent direction and area of the sky... so I give myself a 'fair' chance, not really a good one.
