I am once again participating in the Hudson Valley March On For Brain Injury Walk on Saturday, August 27, 2016 as a member of Team Northeast Center, the brain injury rehabilitation center where I work.

I would greatly appreciate anything you can do to help me reach my goal at:

From my morning watch. That's Beauty left of the white disk and DC with food on top of the disk.

That's why I knew to look! Thanks!

Scratch that...off by the time I got the note posted...

So...the Perseid meteor shower is supposed to peak tonight after midnight. According to timeanddate.com the best angle will be between 37º and 44º north-east gradually rising in the sky from 29.4º to 67º altitude.

I don't think cam 1 will go high enough without running into the housing after a while, but probably worth a shot at pointing cam 1 that way tonight.

Based on this google earth image I would guess just about over the Radisson would be about right.



Hopefully the cloud cover will cooperate!

Maximum elevation of the camera at full zoom is 30 degrees. When zoomed out, the housing obscures the top part of the frame.

Other problems to deal with will be the poor low-light capability of the camera (noise, focus, low frame rate) and the flare from city lights washing out the picture.

Oh well...was worth a thought!

First, and only, peregrine I have seen so far today:

 

OK-then it wasn't just me missing them today. Off on their own adventures I guess!

Good morning Dot!
