Perseid meteors 2019
Photo description / processing
August has begun—the Perseids are coming soon!
This photo was taken in the past, in 2019.
Meteors in the Summer Triangle. Two fairly bright and colorful Perseids streaked from top to bottom, moving from Deneb toward Altair, while Vega remained in the frame to the right of these meteors. In the lower right corner, another meteor trail is visible; it does not belong to the Perseids and most likely comes from another meteor shower—the Delta Aquariids.
Collage. Individual frames with meteors were overlaid onto a starry background (stack of 20 frames, 10 seconds each, ISO 3200).
Taken from a balcony in Kharkiv, a red zone of light pollution.
