SHOTLIST ANKARA, TÜRKİYE (AUGUST 12, 2025) (ANADOLU-ACCESS ALL) (NIGHT SHOTS) 1. VARIOUS OF PERSEID METEOR SHOWER OVER SALIN PLATEAU CAPTURED THROUGH LONG-EXPOSURE PHOTOGRAPHY ANKARA, TÜRKİYE - AUGUST 12: The annual Perseid meteor shower dazzled stargazers in the Turkish capital Ankara on Tuesday night, Aug. 12, creating breathtaking views over the Salin Plateau in Kizilcahamam district. The celestial spectacle, one of the brightest and fastest meteor showers of the year, was captured through long-exposure photography, revealing vivid streaks of light across the night sky. Known for their rapid "shooting stars," the Perseids occur every summer as Earth passes through debris from the Swift-Tuttle comet. The meteor shower, which remains active until August 24, peaked on August 12, with up to 100 meteors per hour visible under ideal conditions. Writing by Sibel Uygun
