Delta Aquariids meteor shower: How to see and photograph shooting stars this week

Scottish stargazers and night sky watchers are in for a treat this week with an annual meteor shower set to peak towards the end of this week. The annual Delta Aquariid meteor shower falls in line with a New Moon this year, making this week the perfect time to see 'shooting stars' at their best and brightest, and have great chances at not only enjoying them but also capturing them on camera.

That's why the image monitoring experts at Pixsy have put together a guide to everything stargazers and amateur astrophotographers need to know.

It covers when, where and how to spot the Delta Aquariids, as well as a checklist of photography tips and the best smartphones for taking starry pics.
