Gardendale, Alabama Blue-Green Meteor Fireball 23AUG11

Gardendale, Alabama Meteor Fireball 11:13 pm 23AUG11

Blue-green fireball, looking north from Gardendale (taking long exposures of north star) fireball started a few degrees above north star and traveled vertically toward the north. Appeared to tumble because it briefly flashed a blue green then gave the appearance of something tumbling in the last green flash.......I missed it by 2 min. getting it in my last shot.  Eddie S.  Thank you Eddie!
