Perseid Meteor Shower Radiant Day 1`

Here's my shot from this morning of 32 Perseid meteors over Frosty Drew Observatory in Charlestown, Rhode Island, USA. I tracked the radiant point from midnight until dawn. I will set out again tonight to capture more Perseid meteors to add to the composite. In this shot the radiant point of the shower is very apparent.
