A fireball at night, brighter than a full moon - 29.9.2020 at 00.00 Vaasa, Vähäkyrö Observation number 93997

Visibility V / V


I was photographing the northern lights the night between Mon-Tue and only at home did I notice that one of the latest pictures had a fireball in the picture below, etc.?
The exposure time in the image was 3.2 seconds. I did not see the flight on the spot, only afterwards from the picture. It would probably have been great live :)
The evening was all reasonably windless. Nor did I "quote" any special sound at that moment in the photo shoot. The evening was quiet, windless and peaceful.

Kiva yllätyssaalis! Ihan selvästi näyttää tosiaan tulipallolle, koska kirkkaus vaihtelee
