Orionids take 2

Had another go at the Orionids last night, this morning after work.

These things have eyes for camera lenses, and are a bit camera shy i think everytime i moved the camera, one would flash where it was. Very frustrating.

I saw some awsome streaks racing across the sky, so that makes up for not getting them on the camera, there was definately 2 radiants where they seemed to be coming from, a great show was enjoyed between the clouds.

This is one of the best for the night,i should have mounted the camera on the eq5 instaed of the tripod, but you just can't beat the ease of setup with a tripod.
