Perseid Meteor in Infra-Red

Date:      13th Aug 1988
Time:      00:06 UT
Exposure:  1.5 min @ f2.4
Equipment: Zenit camera with 50mm FL f2 standard lenses
Film:      Kodak high speed infra red, used with infra red filter.

Notes:

This was my first attempt at using Infra-Red film. I thought that it might produce interesting results when capturing the IR light from a meteor. I was fortunate in getting just one image on the roll of 36 exposures.
