A nice grouping of Geminids rain down over the Teton Range. I took this photo while on a ski trip to Jackson Hole. I couldn't fit boots into my luggage so I wore the warmest footwear I had available... my ski boots. Let me tell you, in single digit weather ski boots just don't cut it. After shooting for a few hours, I began to hear the howls of wolves on either side of me. They seemed within 100-200 yards away. I didn't feel as if I was in too much danger but I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little nervous. Luckily I just about had my composition dialed in and was at the point where I could leave my camera for the rest of the night. I walked back to sleep in the rental car for the night. When I woke up in the morning my camera, tripod, and star tracker were completely covered in ice crystals. After admiring how tough camera gear is these days, I packed up and headed off to the mountain for another full day of skiing.

This photo is a composite of several images all taken in this location on the same night: One image for the foreground, another for the sky, and several images of meteors.
