COSMIC MESSAGE
City lights reflect on the water in this wide-angle view of Vancouver, Canada. On August 12, during the Perseid Meteor Shower, the photographer captured meteors streaking across the sky above the city. This image is a composite of many two-second exposures taken over an hour and a half, showing both the city and the trails of stars.
