This is is a fisheye-lens shot taken during
the Orionid Meteor Shower of 2006.
The prominent meteor visible near the
constellation Auriga was very bright to have shown
up so well on this photo taken with a slow lens.
Click on the photo to see an
enlargement of the
meteor. Another meteor was captured on this photo, but is difficult to see even on the full-sized image.
