Was out from 2 am to 5:30 am on the 20th. Admittedly was concentrating mostly on imaging Jupiter, but in-between kept an eye out for Orionids.

This is in suburbia, so pretty light polluted, still I saw 1 sporadic and 3 Orionids (2 nice and bright, and one REALLY bright). Those Orionids are FAST.

Add in an ISS flyover, and it was a very pleasant morning.
