Mesmerising timelapse footage shows the Leonid meteor shower lighting up the night sky in Quezon province, the Philippines on November 18.

Onlooker John Carlo Gatdula waited with his friends throughout the night with their camera gear ready for the bright space showers.

He said: "It was an amazing experience. It was worth the wait. I'm always fascinated about the stars and the universe. Maybe someday we'll make it to other planets."

The Leonids are active during the month of November annually and this year, the amazing display peaked on November 17.

They tend to be bright and persistent trains of up to 15 meteors can be seen per hour.
