This morning (22nd) is one night after the peak. Was finishing up a long photometry run at 2:30am so I thought I'd stay out for another hour and see if there was any Orionid activity to be seen.

In that hour I saw 2 Orionids and 2 sporadics. I love these showers, they give you something to do while you are waiting for darks, or for the camera to warm up or whatever.

Looking forward to the Leonids in November.
