Image Details:

Second dawn hunting for Perseid meteors and luckily got a combo - a green Perseid meteor (bottom right), a satellite (middle), and Andromeda Galaxy (upper left) in one frame! It was pretty hard for me to capture even a single meteor as my camera's field of view is quite narrow. Even worse, I was watching under a heavily light-polluted sky. Nevertheless, I feel super lucky to capture such a stunning image! This year is my first time watching the Perseids and it does live up to its fame.
