Milky Way & Perseids at the Ghost Faces of Roque Las Cuevos / Tenerife 2020

August 10, 2020 - the first Night at Tenerifes famous Roques de Garcia. While there was still a low crowd of stargazers for the upcoming Meteor Shower - I was able to sneak into the middle of these weird looking lava rocks with my camera. In the end, I spent all night at the same spot because the amount of possible composition made me walking on air.

Since I am mostly getting stucked in more time-consuming long exposure panoramas instead of shot and run adventures, I was forced to stay there until moon rise and got more and more fascinated by the ghost-face-like looking caves of the Roque Las Cuevos - the Rock of Caves.

Damn that was creepy and hard work, but the scenery with the Milky Way behind and being the lucky child with a beautiful Perseids Meteor in front of the Rho Ophiuchi region makes this panorama one of my favourites so far! It’s made of 12 single images in a 3x4 pattern, tracked with my Vixen Polarie Star Tracker and 60s exposures. The Shooting Star runned into frame of my untracked foreground exposure and was added to the exact position afterwards

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.
