The Geminid meteor shower recently filled the night sky with thousands of shooting stars in breathtaking time-lapse photos captured by professional photographer Miguel Claro. Over two nights, Claro set up cameras at the Dark Sky Alqueva Reserve in Portugal to capture more than 100 meteors.
Claro’s images showcase the shower’s radiant point located in the Gemini constellation and highlight the beauty of the night sky with its starry path, bright constellations, and colorful nebulas. One of his students is also featured in the image enjoying the celestial display near Alqueva Lake.
The photographs demonstrate Claro’s expertise as a European Southern Observatory Photo Ambassador and astrophotographer of the Dark Sky Alqueva Reserve. The images are available for purchase as fine art prints, offering viewers a unique opportunity to experience the wonder of the night sky.
