The Perseids Meteor Shower, created by the dust trail left by the Swift Turtle Comet, reached its glorious peak last night. The shower, which is typically visible within the constellation Perseus, is an annual event and can be seen for approximately a month each summer.
A photographer friend of mine traveled out to the mountains last night to observe the meteor shower away from the bright lights and craziness of Las Vegas. He was able to to take this beautiful photo while out enjoying the fresh air. You can check out more of his amazing photography on Flickr or his website FourG Photography.
