Leonids 1999 Here are thumbnails of some photos taken on the morning of November 17-18, 1999, from Puimichel, Southern France, when the Leonids were at their peak. The all-sky shots were taken with an 8mm Peleng f3.5 fish-eye lens on Fuji Superia 800 print film. The other camera held Fuji Provia 1600 slide film.
