Falling Star

I dragged Bryan with me the other night to shoot this United Church at nite.
Bryan is from this area and can remember this church with windows, doors and nice white paint.
I have seen many many falling stars being out "Painting" but never seem to capture them.
That must be bad timing on my part or just not luck...well I picked the right time to
expose this image for 10 min. and I did get that falling star just to the left....
To bad this image is sized for the web as it does not do the falling star any good....

10 minutes is amazing Mike!! Incredible light in the sky and love the light outlining the church. How do you do it??BV

I'm looking forward to another winter of your light paintings! I think meteors are always going to be hard to photograph, simply because whereas the stars get a full 10 minutes to leave their mark on your sensor, a meteor only gets about a second, and so only the very brightest will show up.

Ten minute exposure? Wow! Just great Mike. Definitely one of your best and one of my favorites too. "V"

This is painting with light at its best Mike. I almost expect to see the Pastor at the door shaking hands as the parishioners leave. Congratulations!

WOWZER!!
Does "sized for the web" mean I can't get this one for the trade?
Spectacular my friend.
