Josh used camera techniques to combine 43 images of the meteors that fell during his time there.
He says: "The composite creating a visual narrative of shooting stars ‘raining’ down on Stonehenge."
The Perseids are a prolific meteor shower associated with the comet Swift–Tuttle that are usually visible from mid-July to late August.
