Bay Area News Group photographer Ray Chavez snapped pictures of it from San Lorenzo and then tweeted them.

This is the third night in a row that large meteors have been spotted.

I actually went back and did it several times, each time with the 4 different processes just to make sure it was not me. If the picture is out of a book or off a non digilal source sometimes they go haywire. But never the sky/ That is like a 4 tone gradiant sky.With a postage stamp on it. HUH?

That style of contrail is usually off a jet airlinner flying high and west at dusk. Without a better photo it looks like someone just slopped this together as a sample of what someone else saw.

It probably should read "(photo consructed courtesy Ray Chavez/Bay Area News Group)"

I usually don't print the ones like this but I no longer care if these people see it or not. Do better!

Yeah.  Likely a composite image that was constructed for illustration purposes...but without disclosure that the image is a construct.
