Three Leonids chasing among the Sisters

Three Leonids chasing among the Sisters(paul schulze)

Acquisition Date : November 17, 2009
Camera : Hutech Canon XSi
Camera Settings : ISO 800
Telescope : Televue Np-127is f/4.2
Mount : CGE
Processing Package / Processing Applied : DSS, PS C3
NOTES : The picture is the combination of three consecutive five minute exposures (over brightened to bring out the three separate Leonids) with a 45s delay between photos. The three Leonids can be seen to follow almost exactly in a straight line. A most unusual series of events to capture so close together in time and space.
