Unmodified Canon 1200d, 10mm f/2.8 lens at 6400 iso and 20 seconds.
This is a single image from a time lapse video that I did on Nov 4th in Flagstaff, AZ
(Please see the FB link above to see the active meteor area that I captured - 18 meteors in just one localized area, one after another can be seen.)
This link is of the entire time lapse video on my FB page - https://www.facebook.com/1697754590/videos/pcb.10208992922535760/293377692643156

This single image is from a Milky Way time lapse that I did back on Nov 4th in Flagstaff, AZ. I caught more than 25 meteors during this time lapse from 5:45pm - 10:15pm.
In one localized area, I captured 18 meteors alone, one after another. (You can see a video of these meteors using the FB link above.)
I also captured Aurorae of green and magenta on this night from my 8000' elevation vantage point.
Not sure that all these meteors were related to the Leonid Meteor Shower or not, I was surprised to catch so many of them on this night.
(You can see the full Milky Way time lapse using the FB link above under Equipment Details.)
