Details:
The Line of the Zodiacal Light.
I was lucky enough to capture this unique image on the morning of my Birthday. Sure I have seen plenty of green fire balls in my time but they have always been between shots or in the other direction than my camera was facing. I was just about to change composition but decided to hit the shutter one more time. This Meteor left a smoke trail in the sky for around half an hour. The image also features a unique event that has been happening in the early morning sky recently : The beautiful zodiacal light (the white triangle of light coming from the horizon) with 3 planets rising in the East, Saturn Jupiter and Mercury all lined up with the zodiacal light 19th March 2021
