Two Meteors Alongside the Milky Way

Every year, in mid-August, the Perseids meteor shower hits its peak. One can look to the sky and see 80 or more meteors per hour. I'm lucky enough to live in an area that still has some dark sky left, so I set off for Rocky Mountain National Park to document this amazing event. In this image you can see two Perseid meteors on each side of the milky way, which was particularly bright this night, due to an early moonset.
