Orionid Meteor Shower Peaked Last Night

With the nearly full moon in the sky I didn't shoot the Orionid meteor shower this year, so here's my time-lapse video from several nights of shooting it last year.

I added some footage to fill out the length of the song "Buddha Wears headphones"  by Life Audience.  If you'd like to skip forward to the meteor shower, go to 2:19 in the video: http://youtu.be/BDeWDJLmEIc

Used with the band's permission, the music track is from their album Waves and Particles, available on iTunes:
