First attempt at Wide Field Astrophotography

So last night I finally had a crack at using my new D750 at some wide field astrophotography down the road with Orion setting and after 21 shots did some processing and noticed in one I scored the added bonus of a meteor.

Just thought I would share it and get any pointers that you may give about the shot and the processing. The big bright light in the middle of the pic was from cars with their headlights on so I wish I could have avoided that but with lots of people heading home and the location, it's something I will keep in mind next time.

Shot was taken on a Nikon D750 with a 24mm prime focus lens at f2.8 for a single 20sec exposure ISO3200 and processed using Lightroom.
