Tonight is the peak of the Geminids meteor shower and apparently it's the most spectacular meteor shower of the year with meteor rates up to 120 meteors/hour.(maby more)

Hopefully I'll get some shots of it but right now it's freezing cold and foggy outside with the stars barely visible but you never know.

Looks like I'm lucky, fog has cleared, the moon is setting and I just saw a meteor right outside my window!
 
Damn it was cold as fuck! (-25°C) I got some shots but this one blew every other away :)

Well I'm off, gotta wake up early tomorrow!
 
that's an awesome pic.
i'd go watch outside from my apartments, but there was a mystery assault/rape right outside my apartment the other day. i'll try watching from inside.
