Orionid Meteor Shower Last Saturday Morning (HD Timelapse Video)
Orionid Meteor Shower Last Saturday Morning (HD Timelapse Video) The Orionid Meteor Shower this year was a bit of a dud. I was shooting up at 11,000 feet in the White Mountains and ran my camera for about 4 hours, from 10:40pm Friday until 2:50am, well after the moon came up. To see how a much more active meteor shower looks, here's one of my Perseid Meteor Shower videos from the same location, displayed on the Discover Magazine blog, best viewed full screen: Perseids, Writ Large http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/2009/08/25/perseids-writ-large/ I have a number of posts on my blog www.MyPhotoGuides.com * related to night shooting and timelapse videos.

So I had to set the camera on the floor or on railings, putting the neck strap underneath to adjust the view up as needed, review the results, adjust, re-shoot. I did try both high and lower ISO shots to make sure that I got something (and my 5D mark II will shoot up to ISO6400, with significant noise), but it was difficult. The "no tripods" rule everywhere did seem very shortsighted in a country which relies on tourism and which would benefit from the best possible pictures being shared.
