Perseid Meteor and Aurora (2024).jpg
The Northern Lights in a superb all-sky Kp6 to 7 display on August 11-12, 2024, here over 70 Mile Butte in Grasslands National Park, Saskatchewan, near Val Marie. This was also a peak night for the 2024 Perseid meteor shower, and one bright Perseid meteor shoots down the Milky Way in Cygnus at top, amid the converging rays of the aurora at the magnetic zenith.
This was one frame from a 730-frame rapid-cadence time-lapse, set for the aurora and its fast pulsating motion. Each exposure was only 2 seconds with a 1-second interval, so I was lucky to catch the meteor in its entirety on this frame.
This is a single exposure with the Venus Optics/Laowa 10mm Z lens wide open at f/2.8 on the Nikon Z6III at ISO 6400. Adobe DeNoise AI applied.
