An Orionid Meteor

Got up at 4:30 this morning, to view and to capture this meteor shower caused by dust from Halley's
comet.

This little streak of light is a meteor by the Orion constellation.

Not too impressive of a shower as the meteors were fast and faint.
I captured three meteors in an hour of shooting.

Nikon D70 ,Nikkor 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6g IF-ED AF-S DX VR
10s f/3.5 at 18.0mm, ISO 1600
