Thread: Loch More Star Trails

  1. Default

    Brilliant capture Astroman,have seen two at the same time before but never side by side like this one,very rare i would say.Well done indeed.
    Do you fancy having a go at trying to capturing the ISS through your main scope?Seen a few pics of ppl who just manually guide their scopes to follow it.you can make out the solar panels and main body,quite amazing really.

    I agree, the detail some manage to get photographing the ISS is quite amazing. Not convinced I'd be able to track it and photograph it with the speed it moves across the sky, but might give it a go some time.
