Perseid meteor shower 2021

Another month spent under the starry sky at one of my favorite location - Mangart saddle. Once again, it was quite a gamble with the weather. The afternoon was not very promising, but in the evening the sky cleared, but after a few hours after midnight, the situation changed again. Despite that, two great firiends and myself managed to capture quite a few meteors. All in all, this was my favorite astro - photo experience so far.

Since my go-to lens for panoramas, Tamron 35mm 1.4 was sent away because it stopped working, I would like to thank Nikon Slovenia. They lend me a Nikkor 28mm 1.4 lens without any questions, except "tell us what you need and you will get it".

On the image we can see a full Milky way panorama, this time in company of Perseid meteors. This is the last time we gonna see 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.

EXIF:
56 images panorama

Landscape and sky: Nikon D600 & Nikkor 28mm 1.4

We were also photographing the sky with 4 other different cameras (D610, 2x D720, D600 - lenses: Samyang 14mm XP, Samyang 14mm AF, Nikkor 28mm 1.4 ED, Tamron 35mm 1.4 SP, Sigma 50mm ART)

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
