Caught in the Act

I finally found the time to process my first image from the Perseid night I spent with my friend Benjamin Barakat at this beautiful spot in Switzerland.

 

During twilight, I had already started to shoot when Benjamin walked into my field of view in search of a good composition. I was like: "Man, you are standing in my frame, and you know what? Now you have to pay the price for stomping into my composition. You have to stand still for me because this looks cool!"

 

I hope you like the image as much as I do.
