presents a photo by @petrhoralek N I G H T S C A P E R • Photo Award to Petr Horálek "Immersive Perseid Nights" QUOTING Petr: Perseids Are Coming! Will you have a chance to gaze at the #perseids of this year? Annual #meteorshower is not disturbed by the Moon, so you can enjoy many #meteors up above (but far away from cities of lights!). This image is from last year. After many restrictions made the traveling for Perseids a bit complicated, I decided to stay at Seč lake, Czech "Iron Mountains", where the sky is not quite dark due to #lightpollution but still clear enough for watching the show. All nights around maximum were weather permitting and so I fulfilled one of my dreams - to capture the Perseids over rocks of #Oheb ruins, which is a local nature reserve. Under the #milkyway, the night of Perseids was truly immersive. Where will you gaze this year? • Please show support to our guest artists by visiting their IG gallery.
