Equipment Details:

Taken with a Canon T6s, Tamron 11-16mm lens at 16 mm, Star Adventurer sky tracker. Exposures were 45 seconds at ISO 400.

Post-processing Details:

Brightened a bit and sharpened, adjusted white balance.

Image Details:

I had seen the zodiacal light the previous morning, so made sure my gear was set up that night for early morning action. After framing the image, I set my intervalometer and let it run as the light got brighter. After downloading the pics, I found this one that includes a meteor - I think it's an Aurigid meteor. At least its radiant seems to be that direction.
