Image like me02342 was for a long time in my wish list: meteor with reflection. It is not an easy crop to catch. You need calm water surface and a very bright meteor low above the water. Our summers are too bright to make any astrophotography and actually the only open window is in late Aug-late Nov; after that waters are frozen 'til late April, and then again it is too light to do astrophotography. Moreover, you need a very fast film meaning short exposures and thus you need to use a lot of film! Only to see bright meteors avoiding your wide angles! But one day you have your moment!
Images me02852-me03214 belong to Leonids 2001. Notice that our longitude did not see the first max (we lost it with 4 hours due to daylight), and also the second peak in activity was lost with a margin about 3 hours (radiant below horizon).
