Perseid meteor shower

My lens had a bit of an astigmatism- so the corners don't look great. I don't shoot widefield often, so this was a bit of a learning experience for me.

Can't really see this from city lights, sadly. This was NorthEast, towards Cassiopeia. I don't think the field of view was quite that wide. That galaxy in the top right is about 3 degrees wide, and the full moon is only half a degree, so you can use that to get a sense of scale.

So this is 120, 140 degree viewโ“do you recall roughly which direction weโ€™re seeing. Tried having zero light for an hour or two but i think just ambient light really cuts down to 0 the possibilities in city. Thanks for the sample from the ramble๐Ÿ˜โค๏ธ
