Perseid Meteor Shower 2013
In short, where you are on earth rotates around to the front of the Earth’s path through space at midnight, so the sky above you collides with more comet dust from then until astronomical twilight starts before dawn, as this article in Bay Nature Magazine, featuring one of my meteor shower photos, explains: Ask the Naturalist: What’s the Best Time and Place to See Meteors?
I’ve met other photographers who seem confused about why I show up until 11 pm to start shooting at midnight, so I’ve also updated one of my tutorial blog posts to include that suggestion: How to Create a Time-lapse Video of a Meteor Shower
Thank you to +BayNatureInstitute for licensing my photo for your article!
