Rare Meteor Shower

This is where I call it accidental photography. I didn't go outside till 4:30am, and I believe by this time things slowed down or that I was in the wrong spot... I saw 4 meteors just all over the place between long intervals within an hour... Then I knew for sure, I've missed the big thing. I did manage to accidentally catch 1 right off the bat while I was playing with settings... HA! Atleast I can say I witnessed something special...

Few random ones of nothing but sky in here
