Awesome foursome - Meteors, Milky way, Aurora and Airglow

Glacier Point is the best place in Yosemite National park from where you can see most of the major features. While I was planning this shot thinking about capturing all the meteors above a wider vista and create a panorama, little was I thinking that I would be able to include the Auroras too and definitely not thinking about airglow. And of course, Andromeda too. It was incredible to capture so many of the atmospheric elements in one shot. The foreground elements are also all icons of the park. Half dome and behind it is Cloud Rest. On the right is Vernal falls. On the Dome’s left is North Dome and in between them is Mirror lake. For me, this is truly an “icon”ic photograph.
