Milky Way Meets Lyrids: Breathtaking Skye Meteor Shower Photo

Astrophotographer Josh Dury captured a composite image of Lyrid meteors streaking across the Milky Way above Scotland's Isle of Skye, using a star tracker, a Sony A7S III and a wide-angle lens to stack about 30 seconds of exposures into a single shot that also shows the Milky Way’s core, the Three Brothers of Skye waterfalls, and bright stars like Vega, Deneb and Altair; he described the moment as magical and blended terrestrial and cosmic details in post-processing.
