Shooting the Perseid Meteor Shower

[Laura]

I was expecting 60-100/hr as reported but I only saw about 20 total in 2 1/2 hrs or so, always expecting it to really get going at any time once midnight hit but nope. Still nice to see but for us it was more of a meteor spritz than a shower.

That was exactly my experience, too.
