Description

Captured this image set on a hazy night while looking for shooting stars. The skies were slightly hazy, the air was a bit moist as is normal for an August night in Kentucky/Indiana, and I was fighting my mount quite a bit. But all and all not bad for a first go at these two. Framing could have been better but part of that was an issue with the flip.
