Another good #Perseid meteor captured on the night of 9-10 August 2025. This colourful one appeared just above the Pleiades open cluster in Taurus at 02:37 UT. #Astronomy #Astrophotography #Perseids #PerseidMeteorShower

Very nice! (I don’t know how you keep the full moon from burning out your images…). Here’s one that I caught last night. Not bad, but none that I saw were very bright.
