Perseid meteor shower 2021
Night spent under the starry sky at one of my favorite locations - Mangart saddle. It was quite a gamble with the weather. The afternoon was not very promising, but in the evening the sky cleared and again, after a few hours after midnight, the situation changed again. Despite that, two great friends and myself managed to capture quite a few meteors. All in all, this was my favorite astro - photo experience so far.
On the image we can see a full Milky way panorama, this time in the company of Perseid meteors. This is the last time we gonna see the Milky way core till the spring of 2022, on the other hand, we welcome the return of winter constellations. The king of the image is without a doubt Mangart, followed by Jalovec and Loška stena wall. In the distance there is also visible the village of Log pod Mangartom.
