Description

On October 16, 2021, I was leaving the Paint Mines in Colorado from a session observing the Milky Way and decided to take some long exposures of the cliffs at night. As I was taking the exposures, a massive fireball streaked across the sky. I was able to capture it along with an airplane, the distant lights of Colorado Springs and of course the colorful-but-muted-at-night Paint Mines.
