This is a breathtaking long-exposure capture from the Oregon wilderness, this piece documents the rare convergence of a predawn sunrise and a brilliant meteor—often referred to as a "shooting star"—streaking directly across the celestial path of the rising sun. Presented in a custom-ordered rustic wormwood frame.


"Shot of a Lifetime" is a masterful intersection of patience and cosmic timing. Renowned Oregon photographer Carl Frazier achieved the near-impossible with this work, capturing a meteor’s fiery descent at the exact moment of solar emergence. This high-contrast composition emphasizes the vastness of the night sky against the warm, hopeful glow of a new day. Housed in a hand-selected, custom wormwood frame that echoes the rugged Oregon landscape where it was taken, this signed original is more than a photograph—it is a preserved moment of astronomical serendipity. It serves as a striking focal point for any collection that celebrates the raw, unrepeatable beauty of the natural world.
