ABEL said:there are several meteor showers per year.
the perseids in august and the leonids in november are probably the most famous.
here's a link that i found with a calendar of meteor showers for 2007:

the last column on the calendar in the link gives the estimated number of meteors per hour.

waynetravis can you give me the exact model of your camera? I'll be glad to give you some tips just to know exactly what you have

It's a Fuji FinePix E900.
Only had it a year
Mofo said:Great Pics Abel! for the north star pic how long was the exposure?
and the grainy or noise in the pics are probably because of the 400-800 speed film mine were also taken at 800 iso
Mofo said:I'd suggest 400 max, it depends on what type of photos, obviously 100 has the best quality, but it also depends on the camera, have you consider going digital?
ABEL said:thanks mofo i'll look into it. is there a 2nd recommendation that's not quite as expensive?
also for anyone interested, i saw this short but nice video of the perseid meteor shower on myspacetv.
