Description

Today I thought maybe I should collect some exposures of the Perseid Meteor Shower so I started shooting with my 14mm Samyang but somehow even after one hour I haven’t caught a single one. So I switched to the 135mm one and was able to collect ~2 hours of useful data before the moon rose and the sky got too bright. Somehow those exposures had one of the highest scores in DSS I’ve ever had (at least what I remember). I only had to remove 2 pictures (satellite and plane trails) from the whole batch. I hope I can make the stars a little bit less present for a second (final) revision.
