Eta Aquarid in moonlight


Eliot Herman in Tucson, Arizona captured this Eta Aquariid meteor on May 5, 2018 in the bright light of a waning gibbous moon. He wrote: “One of my favorites because of the color of the meteor is evident in this one and because of these meteors’ origin from Halley’s Comet particles.” Image captured at 3:47 a.m. in the Tucson foothills with a Nikon D810 camera and a Sigma 8 mm lens at 15-sec exposure and 3200 iso using an interval timer. Image processed from a Nikon Raw file. Click here for another image of the same meteor with a 15 mm lens and a second camera.
