The Loch Ness Meteor Captured!

MeteorCheck-out this night shot of a shooting star over Scotland’s Loch Ness taken by John Alasdair Macdonald, a tour guide in the Scottish Highlands.

Sorry no monsters in this pic, but the magic of a shooting star is that they are actually meteors, small particles of space debris that burn up as they enter the Earth’s atmosphere.

This particular meteor is thought to be part of the Gamma Nomid showers that appear in mid-March.
