Two and a half weeks ago, I drove up to Danbury in the middle of the night in an effort to capture the Perseids Meteor Shower. I didn’t capture any meteors but that didn’t matter because the location I had chosen on the Dan River was beautiful under a starry night. Upon returning home, I had dozens of images that were all slightly different. The first one I posted was shot at 1:00 AM. After getting some sleep and taking more time to compare the different images, I found one I liked better captured at 12:22 AM and posted it. I don’t like posting multiple images of the same subject so when I started liking THIS image more than the other two, I didn’t post it and I hate not sharing my favorite work. This image was shot a 12:33 AM (between the other two) and has the best of both and then some - more stars and better framing. Across from Moratock Park on August 13, 2026.
