Perseid Meteor Shower 2020 over Mt. Hood

This is a photo of one of the peak nights of the Perseid Meteor Shower over Mt. Hood. I blended in numerous photos to showcase all the meteors that my camera captured over a 4 hour period of continuous shooting

 

Watching countless shooting stars literally "sizzle" as they soared past me was a wonderful and chilly experience sitting alone high in the Mt. Hood National Forest. The Eye of Sauron-looking part of the image on the right side of the horizon is a rising crescent moon🌙 as it breaks through heavy clouds in the atmosphere.
