| Name | Leanne B |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | The photo was taken directly blow the appearance of the meteor... I was between two trees and slightly forward of their trunks (making an equilateral triangle) and I had to look directly up, through the east branches of the trees to see the meteor... i had my camera out for the northern lights, set at a 13 second exposure, and the meteor appeared partway through the shot, whitening it out. |
