Equipment Details:

Canon Rebel t6 and Rokinon 16mm f/2 lens

Post-processing Details:

About 50 frames stacked in Adobe Photoshop, blended with lightening method. Color corrected in Adobe Lightroom

Image Details:

This is a three hour composite image of the Geminid meteor shower on its most active night! I shot photos over a period of three hours (3am-6am) and stacked all the frames with meteors in them- about 50 in total. The geminids rarely disappoint, and this night was no exception. Well worth the lost sleep and frigid cold conditions.
