Magic Lantern

Award-winning night photography of the Milky Way and Perseid meteor shower over a chapel in Sumava, titled Magic Lantern, by Jan Smid, Master QEP. 2020.

Mostly due to the actual Moon phase, I wanted to make this year’s Perseids hunting short. Me and my colleagues went to my favorite photolocation in Šumava (Bohemian Forest National Park). We didn’t expect more than a good talk. But we ended up shooting during 3 nights and getting more than 800 pictures out of that. I picked up the most attractive meteorsr for you to enjoy the momentum.

Panoramic night photography (multi-exposure stacking).

Equipment: Nikon D850, Carl Zeiss Milvus 15mm f/2.8
