Pete, I also saw one of these on Monday morning. It even went through
the FOV of one of my cameras, although due to the wide/slow lens it's no
where near as impressive as it was in real life! If only it had been in
the FOV of one of my other cameras!

I felt it was a good show this year overall, with plenty of fireballs,
and brighter Perseids. Faint ones were in the minority. 136 Perseids
seen in 3.5 hrs, but I was not able to observe all the time, as I had to
attend to the cameras! The best part of the show (last 30 or 40 minutes
before twilight) was also lost due to cloud.
