A perfect night for stargazing according to local astronomer
It was a perfect night for the Perseid meteor shower in the Isle of Man, which revealed some unexpected sights.
That's according to local astronomer Howard Parkin from AstroManx.
Clear and dark skies meant the Island was treated to front row seats of the annual phenomenon.
Mr Parkin said people with a keen eye got more than they bargained for:
