2008_10_18_23:18:19 till 10_19_05:45:48composite from x17 images , stack using IRIS command add_max2 X 17 ( file in x1.fit...x17.fit)
brighter stars Sirius and Canopus created a trails in the composite.
Using UfoAnalyser Software - the ID of each meteor was identified - as expected, the backward propagation of quite a number of them intersected at radiant of of Orionids Meteor Shower - the dust trails from Halley's Comet. Majority of them detected in 4 - 5 am when the radiant is highest. Two Epsilon Geminids were detected too.

Good picture, looks like you may have also captured an Epsilon Geminid on the left side there, possibly two.
Hi Mark:
Thanks. Just added a plot of the meteors and the two epsilon geminids happened to be two that looked 'lined-up' with the rest orionids. Look at the plot and on the v right edge was epsilon geminids radiant..
