[quote="pcully"]My camera lists it as 1:19:30AM on April 22, 2012, but I found out that my two cameras were improperly synced (the other one never got changed for daylight savings) and now I've synced them both and in the process lost the exact time correction. I believe it was within +/- 3 minutes, but I don't know if that helps any. Thanks for offering to help though![/quote]
Your camera time looks very close. Here is the meteor (which is definitely a Lyrid) from both Guffey (90 miles south of you) and the Denver Museum of Nature and Science (30 miles southeast of you). I've also got video of this from Guffey [url=http://www.cloudbait.com/meteor/data.php?recnum=47291]here[/url]. If you'd like to send me the image, I'll post it on my [url=http://www.cloudbait.com/science/lyrid2012.html]Lyrids report page[/url], suitably credited, of course. It's not often I have simultaneous data from the allsky network as well as still camera shots.

What time was it? It's probably on one of my meteor cameras around the state, so I can tell you for certain if it was a Lyrid or not.

My photograph in the Lyrid Meteor Shower Gallery above was just one of 1300 images I took the night of April 21 following the meteor shower from Boulder, Colorado. Here is the time-lapse video of the shower. A lot of the streaks seen are actually airplanes, but I captured quite a few meteors which are highlighted at the end. A few were not true Lyrids, but I'm pretty sure the best fireball traces back to the constellation namesake.

Note:
The camera pointed only to heaven, but to do so boring, I have overcome the mountain that would appear if the camera down towards the horizon of the earth.
