Perseids Meteor in Grand Canyon, Arizona
After a great dinner three of us stayed up to try some night photographs as the skies were clear. We were constrained as the cliffs closed the amount of sky visible.
I used a technique which took pictures every 6 seconds to combine into star trails. This is one of those photographs which also caught one of the Perseids meteors. The milky way is to the left of the meteor.
