Orionids ?

Hi all, decided to try for some Orionids this morning after work

Set the 5d up on the tripod and played around with ISO f/ settings, but the light glow from the city made it useless.

I decided on 20 second exposures at ISO 800-1000, canon 28-105mm, nr off.

I was amazed at how many i saw, at least in the high 20's per hour, with some very bright ones as well, just didn't get those ones on the cmos

Here is a pic of one, i think anyways, its got a nice green tone, still working on the processing to bring it out a little more.
