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.

So I've been looking ever since for other tall objects to place the North Star behind. I have many ideas, some of which may take months or years for me to physically get to, so it's a theme I'll theme I'll be working on for some time to come.
