Meteor Fragments Over Gastown Caldera at Midnight in beneath a moon-washed horizon near Gastown, Vancouver

Meteor Fragments Over Gastown Caldera at Midnight

by Hadley Dorsey

Moonlight spills across the darkened rim of a dormant caldera near Gastown, Vancouver, casting a cool silver sheen on the jagged volcanic rock. Above, streaks of meteor fragments carve bright, transient lines through the star-studded sky, their trails fading into the faint ground glow that illuminates the crater floor. The wind whips through the sparse, hardy vegetation clinging to the slopes, bending the dry grasses into sharp angles. The contrast between the celestial fire and the silent, heavy earth creates a moment of suspended time. At the edge of the frame, a weathered stone marker stands half-buried in the ash, its surface worn by centuries of exposure.
