Earth Science Picture of the Day (EPOD) has posted six photographs of what can be described as a labor of love and a commitment to astrophotography. The project took "8 long years," said photographer Petr Horalek. 

He photographed the 6-major meteor showers "from around the globe." The results are beautiful. There is an explanation, related links including one to his website and a description of his attempts at keeping all things the same for each image -same cameras, lenses, post-processing methods (with a link for more details about this aspect).

What an effort and it is a treat to to be able to view the result.
