Wink Horsehead hit by meteorite

Hi again everyone,
Had a session last night to image the area around the horsehead neb, the evening looked like it was going to be one of those special nights being extra dark and the seeing good, but by the time orion started getting high, well we all know the story.......high-clouds...clear...fog...clear...clou d..clear..bummer..I did manage to get about 8 good frames to stack and this was a special one capturing a Orionoid meteorite as it entered our atmosphere..
Its a single exposure of 6 min at iso 800 with 6" reflector with DF removed and processed in PS CS. I think it came out not to bad for a single frame..
Cheers Gary....
