Excellent Work Phil, great result. With the one meteor I captured I did a similar thing to you in regards to masking and overlaying over another background image. I think this is the best method to use but as you state in your description it is tedious going through them all... I tried using a program called Starmax to auto detect the meteors but have been unsuccessful so far.
It shows a wide FOV fast lens and high ISO is what is needed for these to be captured on a DSLR. Thanks for taking the time for explaining how to capture them and process them out..
BTW did you have to do much curves adjustment on them to bring them out more?
