Description

This is what I got out of the perseid meteor shower night back on August 13th.

We had a very fun night under dark skies in Hellenthal, Eifel, Germany.

This is a composite image but the position of the meteors is correct.

Many Deep Sky Objects are located in this area, such as the bright Andromeda Galaxy, the Triangulum Galaxy, the Double Cluster, the Heart- and Soul Nebula and so on.
