![Fields Landing - Humboldt Bay, Humboldt County, California.. Swipe for 3 separate panes. Shooting star/meteor in middle and right panes. .
I had another great time out being photographically creative with @maryburnzz . It was a good night for it! We each caught a shooting star, I think two different ones. .
.
A fishing boat and the last dying embers of the sun's orange glow marked the horizon. Ground lights spilled their illumations across the landscape and up onto the clouds, and the stars popped out in all their constellations. Venus was sinking in the west, bright enough to cast a reflection on the bay. Even a faint hint of Milky Way 🌌shone diagonally across the sky. Even EVEN our neighboring galaxy Andromeda 🌌 was visible above the channel marker with the green light on it. To cap it off, I caught a meteor/Shooting Star! 🌠(See it?).

From the story on kymkemp.com (Redheaded Blackbelt): “It [my pano] comprises five separate, side-by-side vertical frames, which I then put together into the whole. The resulting view is nearly 180º.” .

Musings at the Moonstone Cave
