Leonids near Orion, Nov. 18th, 2001

Leonid fireball caught on 100 speed film in Nov. 18th, 2001 just before dawn
(Unfortunately I had run out of 1000 speed film). Meteor appeared much
brighter than what I caught on film. Note at least 7 other Leonids in
this approx. 5 min. exposure.

Smoke trail from same Leonid fireball above taken a few minutes later. Trail
was visible for at least 15 minutes.
