"Wishes in the Sky:" This image spans almost 8 hours of my camera being on a tripod in the same spot, attempting to catch as many shooting stars during the recent Perseid meteor showers, and layering the brightest ones onto my base image, before my batteries finally died for the night. Taken in Sedona. It was a very long night indeed with a long drive home afterward! One of the interesting things I noticed both this time and last year (my first year I tried to capture meteors) is that most of them had a reddish-pink hue on their forward end and a green hue on their back end. I read that it had something to do with the atoms that were emitted by the meteors themselves and the atoms that were present in the atmosphere as they broke through that layer on their journeys toward Earth.
