Perseid Meteor Shower 2018

Composite image from the peak night of the Perseid meteor shower, 2018.

Like every year with good night sky viewing since 2009, I went out and captured Perseid meteors again in 2018. I used two cameras on the peak night, creating both composite images and a time-lapse video.

Thanks Michael B. Stuart & Fstoppers for featuring my Perseid meteor shower photo in your article!
