Experience Level
1/5
Remarks
Having seen countless "shooting stars" and a few vivid meteor showers (mostly white as a perceived them) this was the brightest and most colorful one. This is even though I was driving in bumper to bumper traffic on the 101 freeway with all the LA city lights polluting the night sky
