The Perseids Meteor Shower 2016

Peak viewing of the Perseids was supposed to be the night of August 12th but I wasn't able to make it out to a dark place at 3am until last night, the 13th.  There were still a lot of meteors streaking across the sky, but not very easy to capture.   Out of hundreds of exposures, one meteor found it's way into my camera frame. Still there was something magical about sitting in the pre-dawn dark, feeling the soft ocean breeze and watching all the night sky activity; satellites, meteors, constellations - all wheeling through our vast universe.  Then, of course there was the dawn.  All well worth the lack of sleep :)
