If you are looking for the Texas meteor from Feb 1st 2012 try this as a starting point. www.youtube.com Some really amazing video. Went out early in the morning of January 4th 2012 to see if I could get some good meteor shots. There was plenty of activity but only one of them showed up on camera. Still made a nice little timelapse. About the Quadrantids: The Quadrantids are the first meteor shower of the year. It gets it's name from Quadrans Muralis, an extinct constellation at the handle of the Big Dipper and just to the left of Arcturus. It peaks for only a few hours unlike other meteor showers which may last for several nights.

If you are looking for the Texas meteor from Feb 1st 2012 try this as a starting point. www.youtube.com Some really amazing video. Went out on April 21st,2012 to see if I could get some good meteor shots. This time from the roof looking straight up! We got more but they were all sort and/or dim. We had to max out the settings in order to see most of them on video. Still made a nice little timelapse.
