Two meteors from the 2011 Orionids Meteor Shower, each meteor is a little piece of Halley's comet burning in the atmosphere.
The long trace was a bright bolid.
The dome of yellowish light is light pollution from the big city of Buenos Aires about 100km to the East.
Taken at the Mercedes Observatory, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
