While imaging the southern sky from my backyard, saw this Orionids meteor. Was doubly pleased that my camera caught it. Pure luck that my 135mm lens had a wide enough field of view to include it with the Orion nebula.

Canon SL-2 and Takumar 135mm lens with a Vivitar 52mm UV-haze filter, on a Celestron 4SE mount, single 30 second frame, ISO 800, F/5.6

Since it was just a single photo, no stacking, just some cropping and touching up using GIMP.
