This is an absolutely awesome photo.
Awesome! Thank you for your hard work and patience and for posting these! I remember the day when a photo like this would have been "Top Secret - Handle Via T**** K**** Channels Only" Regards, Dave |

Certainly some impressive shots. Next time you're going to the beach .... -- Cheers Dave Kearton |

Would you consider posting a photo of your setup from multiple angles?

R. Dean wrote: Well done.. What type of scope? Hi, R. Dean has this type of Telescope (he mentioned it some Posts earlier): http://www.celestron.com/c2/product....D=17&ProdID=97 A Celestron 8" F/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain. Im more interested which type of Mount he uses, a Fork-Mount or a Equotorial / German Mount? The Movement of the Mount must be quite fast to catch up an Airplane with that Focal-Lenght. Btw it seems that he also uses Afocal-Projection sometimes (Mounting the DSLR to an Eyepiece which is put into the Eyepieceholder of the Scope to dramaticaly increase the Magnify Factor).

Have not used eyepiece projection or motor drive on any of those shots
but I might try in the future. Just manual tracking. Yes, I'll post a pic of the setup but I don't have two digital cams so I'll have to wait until somebody comes over with a camera and it might be this weekend. Will have some more pictures the first of the week so I'll post the pics of the camera setup then. I do appreciate the nice responses to the pics. It is fun doing them and knowing that other airplane addicts can appreciate them. A final question....is the ISS "aviation"?. I guess if there are people in them it is? Or is aviation only in the atmosphere. Rex "john smith" wrote in message ... Would you consider posting a photo of your setup from multiple angles? |
