The wife has just come back from visiting friends in New Jersey and went over to Rockland Lake, where she took these pics.
She didn’t know it at the time, but when she showed me the pics I realised she was seeing the tail end of the Quadrantid meteor shower which finished on 12th January this year. That’s debris from an extinct comet which became the minor planet “2003 EH1” sometime in the last 500 years or so. Pretty neat, I think.
