Perseiden - a meteor swarm - with star photography tips
Perseiden -
Star photography and 'shooting stars' photography are two tricky but very fun subjects. There will be a lot of 'falling stars' to see in the coming time. By the way, because it's not stars that fall, but meteors coming through the atmosphere towards Earth.
Friday the 13th (oh you, don't be superstition..) 2021 is the night you can maximally enjoy a star rain! There can be up to 85 meteors per hour in the atmosphere. That's where the outside glows, so you can see a line of light. That's the “falling star” as we know it. It's about the Perseiden - swarm
Most meteors are there at 2 o'clock in the night (12 to 13 August). The best time to watch is around quarter to 4 in the night. Then you look east-northeast. Because it is fairly dark and the moon won't give distracting light, there's a chance you can see the meteor shower very well. Find a place where you have low light pollution, especially if you want to take pictures too.
from 12 days before and up to 12 days after this moment, you can already see many signs of combustion (falling stars) of the meteors. We were late at sea spotting sea spark on Thursday, and then we saw several falling stars.
