A single frame from a 300-frame time lapse movie, this one showing a bright meteor that showed up only on that one frame, a bit of luck as each exposure was only 4 seconds at 4 second intervals. Taken with the Canon 5D MkII and 16-35mm lens at f/2.8 and ISO 1600 to keep exposures short to minimize blurring of the windmill blades (to no avail), despite the bright moonlight from a Full Moon.
