Meteors reminiscent of the stellar sword released from the constellation Cygnus. I photographed it on the day of the maximum of the Perseid meteor shower, aiming for the moment it was released from its wings. Just when I had given up, it was miraculously captured in the breathtaking night sky. This cosmic spectacle combines celestial beauty and science fiction wonder.
