Photographer Tommy Eliassen captured this spectacular view of an Orionid meteor streaking through the dazzling northern lights and Milky Way from his camp in Korgfjellet, Hemnes, Norway, on Oct. 20, 2012, during the peak of the 2012 Orionid meteor shower.

In Southern Finland we only had drizzle and rain. We hope for the next meteor shower to have clear skies and be able to take pictures of the event.
