(meteorobs) film any good for this year Perseids?

[Robert Lunsford]

You can photograph even when the full moon is in the sky. You just need to
make sure you are pointing away from the moon and adjust the length of
exposure to avoid fogging the picture. This would range from one minute
during a full moon up to fifteen minutes in a dark sky. The focal ratio of
your lens and the sensitivity of the film also determine just who long you
can keep the shutter open.

Clear Skies!
