Details:
Although it is still a few days until the peak of the Perseids meteor shower, the combination of exceptionally clear skies and a waxing moon lighting up the inner canyon of Grand Canyon National Park was too good to ignore.
This is a composite of two images taken a few minutes apart. There are two meteors visible: a Perseid in the constellation Cassiopeia and a very bright sporadic closer to the horizon.
Nikon D700, ISO 800, 16-35mm@16, f/5.6, 30s.
