Description

Taken from Knolls camping, 1h30m drive from Salt Lake City.

I took 170 photos of 15s in sequence to try to capture the meteors, using a Canon 6d (stock) + Rokinon 24mm F1.4 lens @ f1.4

For the editing I the following:

1) Stacked all the photos to create a clean milk way photo while keeping the  using Sequator
2) Made a starless version of the photo and did Background extraction to enhance nebulosity and increase saturation
3) Blended the stacked on with the original one using screen blend mode in GIMP
4) Opened all meteor photo
5) Roughly rotated the meteor images to align with the  stacked one
6) Used a mask to blend the meteor photos layers with the stacked one
7) Used a blue hour photo of the landscape to use in the first plane

Lots of work, but I'm happy with the results.
