Orionid Meteor Shower 2014

Thanks to Liz Horton and +ABC11-WTVD in Raleigh for using my Orionid Meteor shower time-lapse video from 2012 to inform viewers about the Orionid meteor shower this year. Here's five hours of the 2014 Orionid meteor shower, condensed into a few seconds of time-lapse video. I shot it in the high, dry, optimal dark sky viewing conditions of the Tonopah Star Trails area of Nevada, under some of the darkest skies in the world.

Here's ABC11's report informing viewers of the shower, with my much longer 2012 video: http://abc11.com/weather/orionid-meteor-shower-visible-tuesday-night-/359788/
