Time lapse night sky video from the alps

About this Image

This wide angle video starts at dusk and is showing almost a complete night (7h) to the north-east across the alpine Altaussee lake.
In the beginning the swan constellation with NGC7000 embedded in the milky way can be seen in the upper part of the field. Below the Andromeda Galaxy is visible. The shadow of the illuminated clock tower is projected into the moving clouds. Perseus followed by M45 are rising. Later Jupiter is rising with Taurus to the right, followed by the vaning Moon and the by bright Venus fading into dawn.
Polaris is the fixed star in the top left corner. Several fainter meteors are crossing at high speed from various directions.
