Friend and fellow photographer Dave Harvey has by day been upgrading the Telescope Control System on the 60" telescope on Mt. Lemmon, which used by the Catalina Sky Survey. During the night this week he's been out photographing the Perseid meteor shower.

He has posted to his blog an image he made of the shower over the 60". A cropped version of this image made Spaceweather.com on the 13th, but even if you saw it there, the full version is worth a look.
