It's been a great week for the Milky Way. I went out a few different times to make some photographs and came away with some beautiful images each time. This time of year, however, the window of opportunity to capture images like this is pretty short. The daylight hours are so long you have to wait until almost midnight for the sky to get dark enough to see the Milky Way really well. And, by the time 3:00 rolls around, the sky is already beginning to get bright enough that it starts to wash out the view of the Milky Way. I made this image at 12:30 AM and was lucky enough to catch a meteor near the upper right corner of the image.
