12/08/15 A dazzling shooting star burns brightly as it plummets to earth over Solomon's Temple, also known as Grinlow Tower, overlooking Buxton in the Derbyshire Peak District. The shot, taken at 12:45am on Wednesday morning, was taken mid-way through the annual Perseid meteor shower where many shooting stars can be seen each minute.
