The meteor looks great with the 30s exposure.

Nice shot. Hubby wanted me to get up at 1am to go checkout the meteor shower...that didn't happen!

I noticed that meteor is in quotes. Is it actually a meteor or is it a plane? Either way it looks legit. I'm impressed.

Actually when i took this photo the outdoor temperature was so low that I didn't want to stay any longer at the balcony. So I locked my camera and went indoor then out again after 30sec of exposure. That's why I am not sure as well whether it's a plane or meteor or UFO maybe
