A number of Society Members were able to take advantage of the November 2001 Leonid Storm by visiting the island of Palau in Micronesia in the Pacific. From there, Jean and Brian Felles were able to take these stunning shots. Note that these are not compilations of several frames, but simply reflect the number of meteors to be seen during the length of the exposure which was 5 minutes in each case!
