Stormy Birmingham Race Course with Greyhounds and Perseid Meteors
One stormy evening while traveling home the combination of clouds, dusk, and lightening made for some interesting light. Fortunately, I had my camera, but had to quickly think of a place where I could take full advantage of the light. About that time, I passed a sign for the Birmingham Race Course and off I turned. It had literally been decades since I had been to the track. In fact, the only time I had been there was for a business outing, and they were racing horses not greyhounds. As it turned out, the lighting and location were great. As it got a little darker and the sky cleared, you could occasionally see a few Perseid Meteors streaking across the sky. If you look closely at the bottom photograph above, you can see Perseid Meteors. I also took some shots of the greyhounds and found out about greyhound racing (something I knew nothing about).
I have not yet posted any of my other Perseid Meteor photographs, but hope to have them on my website http://www.BestDigitalShots.com within a week or two.
