Thanks for sharing that !

Since the Orionids are fainter than the Geminids, are the latter more
photogenic?

I think so. In general, the Geminids are the nicest shower I record.
They are slower, and produce longer trails and more fireballs. I also
think the Geminids are the best shower to observe visually, except for
the typical cold weather (often in the single digits here).
