37 Catrina Day of the Dead Skeleton in Old Town San Diego, California

Catrina is the most famous of the Day of the Dead skeletons. She first appeared in a 1913 etching by José Guadalupe Posada. The three-day Mexican holiday honors the dead. On October 31, the day this photo was taken in Old Town of San Diego, the spirits of children are invited back for a visit. If you look closely in the upper right corner, a meteorite is streaking by. It was part of a meteor shower that occurred during a series of photos I took within a few seconds. A coincidence?
