| Name | Nicolas R |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | Picture taken with EOS 1300D, 30s, 1600 ISO, f/3,5, fisheye 8mm lens. Stars are clearly visible (even the comet), dispite the EXIF informations, time at the observation was 00h36 local time (UT+2hrs). The time of my camera was wrong due to deficient battery (old camera). We were four at the place with then fireball occured, 1 of us saw his shadow projected on the ground. We waited about 1 minutes for a sound, but nothing was audible (plus we were next to a road with truck traffic) |

|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Duration | 2s |
| Length | 35° |
| Remarks | More a glowing trail rather than a smoke trail, but it did not last much, and after the terminal bright flash, I guess I lost my night vision. |
| Terminal flash | |
|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | There were 2 or 3 burst of light (with a really bright one at the end) as the meteor fragmented (I guess) in the atmosphere, so I think it might have cancelled my night vision after that. You can see it on the picture I took (fisheye 8mm lens, EOS 1300D, 1600ISO, 30s, f/3,5) |
