Lyrids Meteor Shower

McMongo · 20th of April 2012 (Fri)

Just a heads up, Lyrids Meteor Shower peaks this Saturday night 4-21-2012 and with a New Moon!
Going to try and get some shots. Just searched the forums and didn't see anything posted up about it.
IF you get some shots post em up. GL

Rain rain, go away... stupid nor'easter all weekend long! I don't think it's stopped raining in the past 24 hours.
