CAMERA: Canon 40D

 All single photos for this image were taken April 11-12 during meteor shower. I used wide angle camera 108 degrees and tripod. I think it is good configuration to catch meteors. Indeed, I got some meteors, but also I have a lot of just single images without meteor. So I tried to see what I can do to stack all this images to one. For 5 min I got wider field, but for 20 min (40 images) with static tripod sky I my final image had not so big size and I tried to focus only small part of sky like North America nebula. This part of sky is very rich. So some other nebulae are visible on this image.
