Image Details:

I drove up north a bit to the Adirondacks to try to photograph the Milkyway, & to spot some Perseid meteors. The location was at the ruins of Fort St. Frederic, "His Majesty's Fort of Crown Point" (a crane there for some reason), located at the southern end of Lake Champlain. It ended up a bit cloudier than forecasted, but I did see some meteors. And even though not perfect (one shot), I did get the milkyway.
