This shot is about 5 hours total exposure with a DSLR camera and 540mm NP-101 Telescope. I am amazed how much "muddy" interstellar dust comes out in this region of sky with longer exposures. At first I thought the meteor was an early Orionid however it does not appear to be since it's origin does not come from the proper radiant.
