If you\u2019ve ever stood under the night sky, you may have been lucky enough to see a shooting star. Shooting stars, or meteors, result when particles from asteroids or comets enter the atmosphere at high speeds. The heat this causes vaporizes the particles and creates the flashes of light we see across the sky. Meteor showers, then, occur when the Earth crosses paths with a trail of particles, and more \u201cfalling stars\u201d are visible.<\/span><\/p>\n

The chance to view a meteor shower can be rare, but always beautiful. But how do you make sure those memories last? Obviously, by taking pictures! While it can be slightly more difficult to take photos of quick-moving meteors with your phone, it\u2019s certainly not impossible. If you\u2019re looking to embrace your inner shutterbug during the next meteor shower, read on to learn how to photograph meteor showers with an iPhone!<\/span><\/p>\n

Best places to view a meteor shower<\/b><\/h2>\n

Unfortunately, most major cities are not ideal spots to view meteor showers, as urban areas often come with light pollution. On the plus side, that\u2019s a great excuse to venture into the unknown a little! Many national parks, especially the more remote ones (such as Joshua Tree National Park in California,<\/a> which sits far enough from California\u2019s big cities to boast clear night sky views) offer amazing views– day or night. <\/span><\/p>\n

Most meteor action will be visible between midnight and dawn, so bring some caffeine with you and pull an all-nighter! Get comfy, and make sure to get to your viewing spot of choice early. It\u2019s recommended to arrive an hour before you think you\u2019ll spot the best meteors, as your eyes can take some time to fully adjust to the dark.<\/span><\/p>\n
